Maine of course......
I picked this up for 50 cents today. Does anyone know if this looks legit?

Yes, absolutely!! Great find!!

I met Yaz as a kid and had him sign this exact book. I foolishly cut the signature out of the book. I would be very interested in this if you want to move it.

Belated big shout out to Mike/@elmalo for making this available to me. I now have a complete vintage (1968) signed Yaz autobiography, to go along with my book with a missing page ;) (which is still in my childhood autograph album).

Was a pleasure. Glad I could help.

Hey Rum, when you shop, how much do you leave behind? Or do you grab anything you think will turn even the slightest profit?

I leave a lot behind, I look to at least triple my $$$ on most items . I haven't been buying smaller stuff accept items for the flea market. If I spend $5-$10 on something I look to flip in the. $30-$50 range. Spending $5 to sell for $10 isn't worth the time & effort. I also don't like spending $50-$60 if an item sells for $100. Even though it's still $30-$40 profit is rather not put that much $$$ out. Been learning more about vintage clothing and finding some nice stuff

Yeah, i guess my jackets are priced in the similar range. They seem to sit around a while. Do you see the same, or are you moving them rather quickly. I know you sell a lot thru instagram, but i havent sold anything there. Just getting a lot of people liking my pictures.

Honestly I don't sell much as far as jackets or jerseys there. My main sellers there are toys. I do sell some rare hats to the big hat collectors on there for good $$$. Occasionally I'll sell a jacket or jersey but not much. I have some that I've had for couple years, some sell same week I get them. I just figure the more inventory I have better chance to make sales .

That slipknot jersey is awesome! And I would contact Drew at Thrill22 about the 2T Giants jacket. He may be interested.
