1927 NY chauffeur's license (link to the Yanks) and a baseball pocket knife.
not really baseball related but i have a johnny weismueller snokel mask with the original box. i think it's pretty cool.
Not me, but I hear someone owns the cryogenically frozen body of Ted Williams...I got to believe this is about the oddest thing one could have in their collection. :)

Ever seen a vintage unopened can of pine tar?

Maybe not the oddest, but pretty unusual. Sticking with the uniform theme, this 1940s woman's baseball uniform is unusual. In the style as those worn in the AAGPBL ("A League of Their Own")

I have two very rare photographs. One is a picture of Houdini locking his keys in his car. The other is a rare photograph of Norman Rockwell beating up a child. - S.Wright
Is the AAGPBL jersey available for sale? Any pics?

Late 40's/Early 50's Marvel Coin-Op Baseball Game
I have this early 1980s Terry Bradshaw head mannequin. Detail is pretty good when seen in person. Got it from my barber when he was cutting my hair long time ago.
I have Shawn Kemp's ipod he used before games when he played with the Magic. Bought it at his yard sale several years ago along with other cool memorabilia.
I have 2 GU Bob Patterson jerseys. The reliever known as "Dr. Glove" for his expertise and acumen for fixing and conditioning baseball gloves was a buddy of mine during his time with the Cubs, and we kept in touch for many years after he retired. One is perfectly normal...his 1995 Cubs GU BP jersey, which he gave to me during the season, but the other one he gifted me with was quite off the beaten path. A few years after he retired, he sent me his purple GU Rockies jersey. Not as a pitcher or a coach for Colorado...this was his coach's jersey from his son's Little League team in North Carolina! :D I still own both.

My collection is very conventional, except for this Dobbs Fifty fedora. These were presented to all the Yankees and support personnel at their 1951 Spring Training Camp in Phoenix. This one belonged to Al Werner, a Yankees radio engineer:
