Re: Sports Memorabilia
There is a show in Ankeny this weekend, if you are over Covid, might be worth checking out and getting info from some of the dealers or collectors. Looks like free admission.

Re: Sports Memorabilia
SGC Grading has been good for fast turn-around. Just received a Economy order back in 6 weeks, and my next order is in the mail, 4 week turnaround. I have been sending them Items that PSA does not grade, but with the recent increase in the economy price at PSA, I may be sending all my economy items thru SGC. PSA is around 8-10 months turnaround.

Re: Sports Memorabilia
So much for SGC. The also raised their prices for economy grading. Jumped from $15 to $25 per card, but their turn-around time is much faster.

Buddy gave me a Michael Jordan rookie to send to SGC grading today. Expecting a grade in the 5-6 range, which is still a couple grand. Value ungraded is around $500 in this condition.

That's more expensive than that Honus Wagner card I used to hear about?

Re: Sports Memorabilia
Basically consider myself in Des Moines when I see the Ankeny sign. One time it was just finishing a rain, and I was on I-35 by Ankeny, and looked in the ditch, and a rainbow was perfectly around the shadow of my car. That's my Ankeny story.Ivytalk wrote: ↑Tue Aug 03, 2021 7:08 amI had a client based in Ankeny once!Gil Dobie wrote: ↑Wed Jan 27, 2021 10:04 am There is a show in Ankeny this weekend, if you are over Covid, might be worth checking out and getting info from some of the dealers or collectors.

Re: Sports Memorabilia
Looking to buy my first card in years. Not because it has value now, but more of a really long play for a UNI guy
I'm looking at autographed Spencer Brown cards on ebay. I can probably get one for about 10 bucks. Send it off to be graded and just squat on it

Re: Sports Memorabilia
Found a Ty Cobb Youth bat at a Antique Mall, 31". Circa 1920.
Local Antique Dealer sold this to me. Babe Ruth Sinclair Oil Contest Baseball, Autograph looks real but it's was signed by a ghost signer for the contest in 1937. Still a nice period piece.

Figured as much, and wish I could be there. Man, what I wouldn't give to dump Jerry Jones so we can get White out of the broadcast booth and back on the field where he belongs as HC, and perhaps even as QB-P again....

Re: Sports Memorabilia
Set up with 7 tables at the Gold Rush Antique Show in Rochester, MN, over the weekend. Sold a lot of my Dad's toy tractor collection to some great homes. Came home with 1.5 tubs out of 12 tubs that I brought. Met a lot of great collectors over the weekend, and looking to return again in May. Sports items also sold fast.

Re: Sports Memorabilia - Johnny Bench in Nashville
Johnny Bench has been one of the best signers at recent shows.
