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 been collecting Pittsburgh HOF members (hockey, baseball, and football) for awhile, and I recently started adding members of the baseball HOF that were inducted since I was born in 1977. I also enjoy obtaining autographs on Sports Illustrateds.

What is your level of expertise?: Long Time Lover

What are your areas of interest?: Sports

Why do you collect?: I like the time spent chasing a piece of history. I've recently started taking my kids with me, and it's fun to do it with them. I also like that I have a hobby that when people look at it they say WOW.

What is your favorite autograph in your collection?: I have a Sandy Koufax cut that my father got when he was my age. I stumbled upon it years after he passed away. I also have an autographed golf shoe from Gary Player and a couple of other golf greats that comes with a great story about why I wasn't working the day that I got it (I ended up on the front page of the paper getting the autograph).

You can ask anyone living or dead for their autograph. Who would it be?: Babe Ruth, but of course Christ or Caesar would put my kids through college.
