I just got back from my weekend in Houston. It was an amazing weekend and besides having a great time I learned a lot more about the business side of the business that will help me when I decide to start my own up one day. I did a lot of trading and selling of some of my personal collection as well as spending money that I had saved up for the weekend. I ended up buying two boxes of Triple Threads, one box of Marquee, and one box of A&G as well as some singles. I also took some pictures of a few autograph balls that I can't believe they let me hold. Without anymore reading to do, on to the hits...

He said he was offered $165K and he turned it down. I think he was looking for over $200K

First off sweet pickups! One question though i thought shoeless joe could not write his name? That auto looks remarkably good for not being able to write his name! Love the Ruth though!

He learned to write later on in life. There are some autos of him out there but they are extremely rare. I think Leaf did a Chase for the Joe Jackson auto and that card sold for $65000.

Really nice pickups. Lucky to hold a Shoeless Joe Jackson auto. How much was for the Ruth? Check me if you are willing to trade the Delgado triple threads.
