Is that an auto on the Piccolo Jersey? And if it’s his, how did you get that and why hasn’t anyone else mentioned how incredible it is yet...

Truly awesome setup, Is my favorite setup that I have ever seen--just curious where do you get your cases for display

Its signed by James Caan. He played Pic in the movie Brian's song. Pretty rare, one of my favorite jerseys.

Lots of Packers in my Hall of Fame stuff. My respect goes out to their legends. In my other thread I just made, with my latest pickups, I had some Packers stuff show up.

Most displays I got at store closings dirt cheap. The helmet displays are all IKEA. Highly recommended

Been a few months since I updated this.

Added to the Cubs/Blackhawks bar

Had to squeeze in the SBXX helmets

Had to annex a new area for more Hall of Fame helmets

And a private signing with Ditka

And Gary Fencik and Doug Plank

The rest. Also nice.

Absolutely amazing. You have a great eye and a gift for how to arrange everything. Wow!

Lockdown32 · 07-23-2020, 03:27 PM

Great additions as always!

Grid · 07-30-2020, 07:55 AM

And I just wrapped up the Hampton private signing last night. He has such a great auto

Also got in a case of 2005 & 2006 Pro Bowl pants from my friends at Ripon. Just a little background on Ripon, they have always had the exclusive to create NFL jerseys/pants. That's going back to the handshake deal with George Halas some 50 years ago, when they were called Sandknit.

It doesn't matter if the jersey was tagged Puma, Reebok or now Nike. They are all still made in Berlin WI by Ripon

And I had to find a creative way to display the ones I'm keeping. If these players only knew, that one day their sweaty britches would be my helmet cushions.

CSprings · 07-30-2020, 01:51 PM

Holy crap, I am absolutely dumbfounded....that is amazing. I'm more blown away by the 80's toy collection than the sports room haha. Man, just to walk through that would be nostalgia overload.

Mitch Trubisky might be on that list as well! Really, outside of Favre, Rodgers and Starr, who else did they ever have throwing TD's LOL

Schmoove · 03-01-2021, 06:19 PM

This is incredible.

Cheken · 03-02-2021, 12:01 AM

This is absolutely true. I got Walter Payton's autograph a lot in the 80's and 90s as a kid. And I still have them all. A lot of my PC was built up one at a time over the past 30 years.

A little here, and a little there, and sooner or later you have a pile.

This is the most amazing non card post I’ve ever seen. Very well done all the way around. The toy store did it for me.

Given that Trubisky is (inexplicably) the only QB since the merger with 50+ starts to have never thrown a pick-six, I doubt it.

The 50+ starts is a bit dubious. He has 50 starts. Crazy though, with 37 picks no one ever took it to the house. I guess his linemen run fast, or his receivers tackle well.

WOW! Freaking amazing! This made me drool big time and I'm not even a Bears fan. I do like Urlacher though so I love the "Bear Hug" photo. I just dream of having all this in my house.

I’m not a Bears fan and I love that. Awesome stuff!!
