So I went to a local garage sale and made a few memorabilia pickups. Needless to say I am very happy. And yes I know only one piece is baseball but I wanted you guys to see what I got. Let me know how I did!

Paid $80 buck for these FULL 1952 (last season in boston) Boston Braves ticket. Compared to other sales, I think I did pretty well

Then I paid $90 a piece on these framed cut autos of the original Superman. Superman has autos of Dick Alyn, Carol Forman, Tommy Bond and Noel Neill. A comic book of signed by both Alyn and Forman is on ebay and they're asking 1000. The Batman is signed by Robert Lowery, John Duncan, Jane Adams, Lyle Talbot, Ralph Graves and I forgot the last

Nevertheless I am very happy with these pick ups. Very unique additions to the collection!

Thanks! I thought they were very cool myself. And at 90 bucks each, it wasn't a bad deal at all.

The framing and matting was probably that much. You should net a little profit if you sell.

Nothing of value on the Island goes without notice. Everybody has a hustle.

Those tickets are an outstanding find! Considering they're 61 years old, I can't imagine there are more than a handful left. Much less two that are side by side seating.

Thanks man! I'm really contemplating whether or not I want to get them graded or not. I'll never find a pair in tact, this old ever again.
