About Me
- What kind of member are you? (Check as many as apply.)
- Collector
- What would you like to tell us about yourself, your collecting, or business.
- I have many items from years of getting around. Everything from Sinatra's last 'saloon song' cigarette butt in NY to Michaelangelo's clay from 'The River God' study in Firenza. Things came and went through the years. I had a magnificent Billie Holiday that I was forced to liquidate a few years back, but I still have the actual charts from her last recording date. In relation, I still have a number of terrific classic jazz sigs. Love the Ruth's & the Gehrigs. I should be able to get a fairly priced Ruth ball in the coming year.

Chris...welcome to Live! What did you have to sell by Billie Holiday? In 1999 I bid on a letter she wrote from prison to her boyfriend, also in prison, and I kick myself to this day for dropping out at $4,000. It talked about her sadness and disappointment in herself for ending up in jail.
That still gets to me to this day.
