Sports Memorabilia Notes

So the ball that Barry Bonds broke the all-time Home Run record with is going to be put up for auction. If you have £250,000 or so to spare you can bid for the next couple of weeks on www.scpauctions.com

For my part I had the chance to roundly ‘boo’ Barry Bonds when Cath and I went to see the San Francisco Giants back in May.

My memorabilia collection used to consist of an enormous set of Ebbw Vale rugby programmes dating back to the 1970s. I got rid of them when I moved, but they went to a good home - Graham Davies who runs this site.

My collection nowadays consist of baseballs and ice hockey pucks collected on my travels in the USA and elsewhere in the past 10 years or so. Oh, and a Carl Crawford bobblehead doll from a giveaway at a Tampa Bay Devil Rays game and a Tom Brady bobblehead bought on ebay a couple of years ago.
