Collections

[Cash1977]

I know that we all like to collect what we spend hours upon hours digging from the ground, but what else do the members of TQ collect?

I collect:
Sports Memorabilia
Golf Balls
Knives
Superman Things
Homies (you get 'em from the machines at supermarkets)
(my wife thinks I have problems )

What do YOU collect?

For the same reason, I think!

I collect Dice and Poker Chips. Mostly antiques. I especially like Gaffed Dice, but I recently sold a gaffed shoe of cards, that was an interesting find. I have several sets of Tops and Bottoms, Shaves, Shapes, and a Fixed load. All from the thirties. My oldest chips are Mother of pearl Whist chips from the 1740's. Those are probably the oldest things I have gotten so far.

What are the big prizes you have?

Deef-
I also collect chips, but mostly current chips.

My big prizes are a Babe Ruth autograph (that my grandfather got while caddying for him in 1946), a Frank Sinatra autograph (that my other grandfather got during WWII when he was in a VA hospital for getting hit by a piece pf schrapnel), some old Yankee autos, and an OJ Simpson signed card that he signed while he was sitting in the LA County jail awaiting trial. (No joke)

I collect Pabst Blue Ribbon stuff. I have been collecting it for years. I have a room full of it and boxes piled up in the hallway that the wife wants me to do something with. Maybe I will put it on e... and try to sell it.

You might like to see a pic of a deck of cards I traded for some MoP Chips. It was a deck from 1909 or 1911 that was published by "The Great White Hope" with his mug in a derby on the card back. All of the cards were pictures of different Boxing Greats of the time! Beautiful!

I'll see if I can attach one here, I scanned the whole deck before I shipped it.

Right now I don't have any other collection other than my MD stuff.

Deef I like the cards very cool.

Cash those 2 autographs are very nice, and worth some bucks.


Earl I have a very old nice Pabst bottle. I just know you need one more thing. You can have it if ya want. Let me know, Beale.
