Whats the most "unique" NON CARD you have?

[Craig Smith]

1967 yankees signed pillowcase.

Obtained by a friend of mine while she was staying in the same hotel (in Cleveland) as the team. She rode the elevator several times while the team was leaving for a game. A pillowcase was used because, as a 13-year old, that was what she grabbed when returning to her room to get something for them to sign.

I have tried to sell this unique item for her for almost 2 years but have been unable to do so because it is not authenticated.

Team Auto Lineup card from Peoria Chiefs game. Brett Jackson, DJ LeMahieu, Chris Archer, Kyler Burke plus many others. It's def one of my cornerstone B-Jax PC items.

Also, have plenty of "Unique" football items, but this is one of my favs.

John Elway Auto Golf Ball.

Then why not get it authenticated?

 

[Craig Smith]

The cost of the 25 signatures, including the Mantle, would be more than the pillow case is worth.

Not pricey maybe....but definitely worth a Million.... :lol:

Don't know if this counts but the oddest thing I have in my collection is a Mike Tyson signed baseball on the sweetspot.

Not Baseball but pretty unique


Bobby Hull Canada Post Original Artwork that was used to produce a Postage Stamp of Hall of Fame Players
Also in the frame is an autographed card with the stamp and a First Day Issue Stamp Cachet
Assembled from individual pieces and I had Bobby Sign it at the National a few years back In Atlantic City NJ

A broadsheet sized poster from the Puerto Rico Winter League featuring the 1985-86 Mayaguez Indians, a team Paul O'Neill played for a brief period of time. This also features other major leaguers like Harold Reynolds, Roberto (Bobby) Bonilla, and Tim Belcher among others. O'Neill is on the bottom right corner.

Puerto Rico's Winter League: A History of Major League Baseball's Launching Pad (Thomas E. Van Hyning, Eduardo Valero)

According to the book, O'Neill originally came up with the San Juan Metros but was traded to the Indians for Dion James (a future Yankee teammate of O'Neill). After being traded to the Indians, O'Neill helped them win the league title that year making it very likely that the poster was produced to commemorate the championship. This is one of the few non-card O'Neill items I have. This is the only collectible I have come across from his time in the Puerto Rico Winter League so I couldn't pass it up.

Yes, of course...I forgot about him. I am still not sure why he is the only player with three crowns next to his head. :? Perhaps that denotes he was an All-Star or the team captain.

My weirdest is a wedding cake napkin from Mark Grace's first nuptuals.



My favorite is a prototype mitt made by Wilson for what was going to be a line of Disney Sporting Goods (a concept the Disney corporation floated around after they purchased the Angels). Grace took some promotional photos with it. Only 2 were made. I love the angry Mickey logo.

[cammy collector]

I'm a huge fan of oddball items, I LOVE this thread!

considering I started collecting Cammy 10'ish years after this signing, it's a pretty cool item IMO

sent a TTM to his home. he sent the cards back signed, along with this on the envelope..

dealer badge from 2002 National..

1st MLB HR ticket stub signed after the game with his old signature. I can't say 100% when it was signed, but the original owner states he had the ticket signed after the game he hit the 1st HR. The ticket is for the front row behind the Braves dugout and the signature checks out for the time period, so I have no reason to think otherwise. I would suspect not many of these are lying around. Probably not much demand either.

I would have to say this:

Also I got to scan this photo from my fiance's uncle.




I got this from a local Family Video

My neighbor gave me this after her husband died.




That glove is going to be passed down to my son when he is older and can appreciate it.
