I've always liked this Puckett item in my personal collection. It's an autographed Kirby Puckett hand print. The hand print was apparently applied by Kirby with blue paint for a charity event. It made it's round on eBay twice by the same seller many years ago. They had an issue with eBay the first time around that caused their account to be suspended. The seller settled up whatever issue they had and relisted the item within a couple of weeks. I've always thought it was a unique item and I'm glad I ended up winning it.

Purchased some Metrodome roof, cut it up and created Metrodome Roof Coasters with some baseball card screw-down cases.
I have a piece of the Metrodome that Frank kindly inscribed for me. He hit his 1st and 500th home run under that roof before it fell.

Several non-card items stand out for me. Sorry, I failed to keep it to one item.
Already a diehard Twins fan at the age of 8, I was looking at Al Newman's baseball card and realized he had the same birthday as I do.
So I wrote him a letter informing him of that fact, didn't actually ask for anything, just wrote a note.
A few weeks later, out of the blue, this came in the mail, which, as an 8 year old, was pretty epic.
I have an interest in franchise relocation, and I love ballparks.
So maybe it's the Sick's Stadium photo or the drawing of the concept stadium, but I love the old school artwork and the irony in this "phantom" 1970 Seattle Pilots ticket brochure.
I have no strong interest in the Pilots/Brewers/Mariners, but this is absolutely one of my favorites.
Lastly, and continuing with a ballpark theme...the Metrodome was a really lousy baseball facility.
But, it was the MLB park I grew up going to as it was 20 minutes from where my grandparents live.
So, I tried to gather as many game/stadium-used Metrodome "artifacts" as possible after its closure, and have assembled the "Metrodome Man Cave."
"There's nothing better for that corner space than a shiny giant Metrodome trash can that will fit perfectly," I told my wife.
Some of the stuff was more expensive than I really would've liked, but the actual menu board magnets themselves went for $6 at a food service equipment auction.
I have yet to actually sell any hot dogs with my Hormel hot dog vendor caddy.

Those coasters are awesome. Great idea!
