To make a long story short I went over to a guys house after work today who is looking to sell Roy stuff he has been collecting since the early 90's.
I bought a box full of 8x10s, newspaper clippings, 15-20 cards, a rookie card mint or better condition, starting lineup collectibles, replica 1/3rd scale masks, and some other small items as well.
The reason I'm posting a thread about this is because of the big ticket item. I have never seen anything like this before... It's a picture I took on my cell phone, but you get the idea. I'll try to get better pictures when I'm not so busy with other stuff going on!
It's 6 feet long and about 2 to 3 feet high. The guy said it was in a foot locker or some other retail store like that. I'm not sure exactly how he got it I wasn't paying attention because I was in awe, but he had his dad build the frame and get glass cut for it at a local company.
THE THING IS AWESOME! I've never seen anything like this. The best part is he gave me everything for a very low price and the rookie card plus two other cards paid for the whole lot right there.
He gave me a deal because he knows I'm a huge fan of him and the Avs and it was just sitting in his garage in boxes so he wanted to go to someone who would show it off and appreciate it.
