    Remembering Billy Martin - 20th Anniversary 12/25

    With the 20th anniversary of Billy Martin's death on Christmas coming up, I thought it might be nice for us to share any Billy Martin items we may have. For those of us who remember, he was certainly one of kind, with a style far absent from today’s game. Thanks for the memories

    Sorry for the blur/reflections, but I took these while still in the frame.

    A young Billy, ex-Halper Collection.

    Always looking for Don Mattingly and other Yankees' game-used items and quality memorabilia.

    The ironic thing about that day was that for Christmas that year, I got the Barry Halper VHS tape about his collection (with Billy Martin)....I watched the tape for the first time that night and the next morning I wake up to the news that he had been killed in a car accident (I think there is still a dispute who was driving).
