Wow MLB-NUT.....I've got that exact same piece from the 2008 Red Sox.....I had never seen one before!

MLB called mine Game Used......but I don't think so!

What a Great topic.....I'm going to have to give this one some thought!:)

No its not game used, under MLB database description: it says Commerative Home Plate. Then Game: Jackie Robinson Celebration Day, then list the entire team players names who signed it and their number, I believe every MLB Team auctioned one off! Just as some of the Father day autographed Home Plates. But yes each one is very neat, and interesting, Thank You!

this is a 2008 team signed tampa bay rays world series ticket. this was my seat i sat in for the Rays first world series appearance, i then took the ticket and enlarged it to have it signed by the team. the players liked them so much a couple of them had me make generic ones for them.

My pieces are like my children. I can't just pick one. But if I had to rank them, here's my top 5:
1. Complete set of Phillies 2008 World Series single-signed baseballs (I count this as one thing)
http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg224/Watchoutforbears/Phillies%202008%20World%20Series%20Set%20NOT%20FOR %20SALE/DSC00332.jpg
2. 1980 Phillies Team Signed World Series Program (will be completed in July!)

3. Dean Smith signed 11x14 (hopefully I'll get Jordan on this one day, and then this will be #1)
http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg224/Watchoutforbears/Not%20for%20trade/DSC00780.jpg
4. 1974-76 Flyers team signed stick

Honorable Mention: Michael Vick signed mini helmet, inscribed "Everybody Deserves a 2nd Chance" (To my knowledge, he only inscribed this once)

Where to begin...

This is a mini-helmet signed by a bunch of Twins, and US Senator Al Franken. Too many players to list though. It sure was fun working on!

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/cd9f52b1.jpg

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/77e15f42.jpg

This is a Glen Perkins signed OMLB (on the SP).

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/f49d7523.jpg

This is a cool piece. It is a Carl Erskine signed and filled out Questionaire that I created:

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/Picture1009-2.jpg

This is a Nicky Delmonico signed ticket stub from when he played at Midway Stadium last year:

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/41132_1377387600153_1395758930_30985438_3329958_n. jpg

Here is a really neat item. Sadly, it's an OLB, but oh well. It's a baseball signed by members of the 2010 Gopher Baseball team. All of these players (except for John Anderson, the coach) has been drafted and signed into the minor leagues. The first signature you will see is Kyle Knudson. I am including a scan of the back of his Donruss EEE cards, because it shows the date when I got the baseball signed:

I don't own this piece, but I created it. It was a birthday gift to my grandpa. These are signed index cards (and some photos they included) of some of the living Brooklyn Dodgers players.

Stan "The Man" Musial signed HOF postcard:

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/63eea8c9.jpg

One of the greatest Boxers ever, Bob Foster:
http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/a79189c6.jpg

Al Newman signed promotional ball. He signed it twice (I was talking to him and he must have forgot he signed it the first time):

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/29322408.jpg

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/1fe75523.jpg

Danny Valencia signed photo, not exactly the easiest guy to track down for a signature:

http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/TBTwinsFan/Picture1013-2.jpg

Lastly, one of my cooler things. The top is Duke Snider, but the bottom two are "prison" signatures of Lil' Wayne, one where he inscribed "Let It Rock!"

A few unique signed items:

Complete game ticket from 07/13/91 wherein four Orioles pitchers combined for a no-hitter vs. Oakland, signed by all 4 (Milacki, Flanagan, Williamson & Olson):

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Orioles/1oak.jpg

A 1978 Bluefield Orioles program signed by the entire team including a prospect who less than two weeks earlier had graduated from Aberdeen (MD) High School, Cal Ripken Jr.:

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Ripken/78Bluefield.jpg

An original Tonight Show script from 1995 signed by both host Jay Leno & Cal Ripken Jr.:

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Ripken/1leno-1-1.jpg

Some cachets that I made myself back in 1989, as Ripken was climbing the consecutive game streak ladder:

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Ripken/1leno-1-1.jpg

A unique signed/inscribed laser photo that depicts Cal Ripken Jr. during his rookie season after he was hit in the head by a Mike Moore fastball & cracked his batting helmet (pre-streak):

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Ripken/1cracked.jpg

A wire photo showing Cal right after he was struck in the head that night:

http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k172/whhp72/Misc%20Ripken/abcF-1.jpg

Last (for now anyways) a signed business card from the Doctor that treated Cal Ripken Jr. after he broke his nose prior to the 1996 All Star Game in Philadelphia:

When I was a resident physician living in Miami I lived 2 doors down from Udonis Haslem. We became good friends and used to hang at his place all the time, playing video games etc. I had Heat season tickets for the 5 years I lived in Miami and at times got to sit right behind the Heat bench. I took these pictures of Haslem and Wade and had him sign them. Now that I live in Hawaii I dont connect with him as often as he is pretty low key but did get to see a Laker game in LA with seats he left me. After the game he introduced me to his good friend Wade and we got to all hang out on the empty court for a good half an hour, just Udonis, Wade, myself and my buddy. It was a special night.

Always looking for 49ers gamers and paying top $$$$$ for ANY 1994 and other quality gamers. Will also pay up to a 500$ FINDERS FEE for the right shirt! Not one person has collected a finders fee yet! Be the first and hook me up with a 94 gamer!

Easy. A Belgium Franc signed by Mel Ott, Dutch Leonard, Bucky Walters, and J. Roy Stockton (baseball writer). Frank Frisch was also along on this tour but didn't sign the note.

In November 1944, the five individuals made a stop to visit the troups in Belgium during the Battle of the Bulge in World War 2. Bucky Walters wrote they were almost caught behind enemy lines (what that exactly means I haven't been able to determine). I purchased this note from the son of the soldier who received it. Pretty cool having a piece that survived a war, and a rather costly battle at that.

Triple Crown Litho signed by Frank Robinson, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle, Carl Yastrzemski and artist Ron Lewis.

It took a while to complete all the signatures on this litho as the original owner had to travel to various autograph shows and buy a ticket and stand in line for each player, he told me Ted Williams did not want to sign his triple crown years but after some convincing he did write 42-47

Great topic...my number one item was easy to decide on, but there were a ton of close seconds. A few years ago I hosted a fundraiser for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society here in Hawaii and basically every star player and coach from the 12-0 Hawaii Warriors football team attended to show their support. I ended up becoming pretty good friends w/ our star QB Colt Brennan. So my favorite autographed item would have to be this "mahalo" letter that he mailed to me a few weeks after returning to Washington.

My favorite autographed piece is something I got myself and did a custom matting job:

Peyton Manning and Steve McNair dual signed 8x10 - my buddy actually took the photo too.

Looks genuine to me![/quote]

Thanks !! :D .... i only bought the ball off ebay for about £10 posted and the original owner didnt know anything about the ball, so it looks like a got a bargain then !! :p

a few years ago i did buy a cheap book off ebay and the owner told me that it had been signed by the one and only Walter Payton !! :eek:

but when i got the book i realised that the book had not been published until 2004 !! :rolleyes:

im just glad i had not spent alot of money just for the autograph !! :o

Not a sport item, so please don't get mad haha, but so far my favorite signed item would have to be my Michael Jackson fedora. This was part of Michaels personal collection and was donated by him to be auctioned for an AIDS benefit. The event was called "Splish Splash" which is why it's inscribed 'Splash' and was held in 1995 hence the '95'

Here's an article that mentions the event and the sentence on the hat

I'd have to say my George Steinbrenner personalized autographed 1996 official world series ball.He signed this for me in Tampa, FL at the Yankees spring training facility which was named Legends Field at the time, now Steinbrenner Field.

Thanks for checking

My favorite non-game used autographed item is my Cubs All-Century Team Poster. Each autograph has been obtained in person between November 2011 and now. Unfortunately I didn't start this project a few years earlier, as I missed out on getting Ron Santo to sign it. In total there are eight signatures, Mark Grace, Fergie Jenkins, Lee Smith, Andre Dawson, Bruce Sutter, Ryne Sanberg, Billy Williams and Ernie Banks.
