BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! An Assortment of Baseball Memorabilia and Sports Ephemera
A collection of sports-related items and paper ephemera. The group includes two painted cast figurines on wood-style bases with brass-tone nameplates. One figurine depicts Harmon Killebrew in a Minnesota Twins uniform in a batting stance. The second figurine depicts Tom Glavine in an Atlanta Braves uniform in a pitching motion. The collection features three baseballs: one gold-colored synthetic ball with a facsimile signature of Barry Bonds, one off-white ball with a facsimile signature of Honus Wagner, and one purple and white ball featuring Diamond branding. Paper goods include a May 19, 1958, issue of Sports Illustrated magazine with Richie Ashburn on the cover. Also present is a group of ticket stubs for various events in the Philadelphia area, including a 1994 Philadelphia 76ers basketball game versus the Milwaukee Bucks, a 2008 Philadelphia Phillies baseball game, and musical performances at the Tweeter Center and Trocadero Theatre dated between 2005 and 2008.
Condition report:
The collection is in mixed condition. The Tom Glavine figurine is significantly damaged with both legs detached from the base and visible adhesive residue at the break points. The Sports Illustrated magazine shows significant surface wear, creasing, and yellowed tape residue on the lower right corner of the front cover. Ticket stubs show typical handling wear, including blunted corners and some staining. The baseballs show minor surface scuffing.
