I close on new house in two weeks. Had to buy five glass curios to accommodate all.

Awesome stuff!

...now, tie your shoes. haha.

ClickWins · 07-15-2017, 08:00 PM

Beautiful stuff, if you like to display stuff I think memorabilia is simply for you. It looks so awesome displayed

danfan1 · 07-16-2017, 09:36 AM

Wow beautiful collection. I love the full size helmet autos, they just seem to have more eye appeal than the minis.

teamterrellowen · 07-16-2017, 10:07 AM

Impressive collection! nvmd question answered.

Tones · 07-16-2017, 10:17 AM

amazing stuff! love the Randy Moss!

escapegoat · 07-16-2017, 01:00 PM

Great Largent!

Grid · 07-17-2017, 09:26 AM

If you are just starting off buying mem, dont buy any white balls signed in blue marker. That sharpie will keep getting lighter and lighter until it is gone.

I learned many lessons on this! They look great for the 1st 6 months, the dark blue really pops. But slowly they bleed like your Staubach is, and one day they will be no more...

I second this. I collect mainly memorabilia now as well, and I stay far away from these footballs. I got a few signed in person back in 2013, and they are already starting to fade away. No matter what color sharpie, they will fade. I haven't seen any signed in paint marker, so that may be different. I'd recommend sticking with normal footballs signed in silver paint marker. I agree, they look cool for awhile, but it's not worth the money to buy something where the signature will be barely visible in the next 10 years

Cervantes · 07-17-2017, 12:03 PM

Wow, this is amazing.

I love the Raiders helmet, the Montana/Rice, and that Warren Moon is a beauty!

Thanks for sharing.

Sweetness34 · 07-17-2017, 12:09 PM

awesome stuff, I too sold most of my cards to transition to memorabilia & never looked back

Whodey14 · 07-17-2017, 01:49 PM

Nice stuff. I collect a lot of memorabilia in addition to cards. IMO if you decide to get into items like this to do as others have said and stay away from certain items. I typically only buy Mitchell and Ness or era correct jerseys. (Reebok, Nike, Wilson etc) Customs are fine too just a personal preference.

As for the white panel balls I have one or two that still look good but highly recommend the duke balls. They look the best signed by far.

Edit, also what does CEI charge for jerseys? There is a good framer in NKY that does high quality work for a fair price.

That is a killer collection, I would love to have a signed Largent jersey in my collection.

I was going to ask about getting the white footballs signed, it looks like a couple of signatures (Unitas, Staubach and Manning) are beginning to bleed and fade.

What I said was a little exaggerated, the signatures will still be visible most likely, just not nearly as bold as they were at first. Black sharpie tends to turn purple after awhile, while blue just gets lighter. It's the type of material the football is made out of that causes this. The helmets, jerseys, and duke footballs will look good a lot longer. I collect mainly jerseys, photos, and mini helmets. I decided to buy a couple duke footballs to get signed at training camp this year by Eric Berry and Patrick Mahomes. This is a very awesome collection. I think I reason I prefer memorabilia is because it's a lot easier to display than cards.
