No Need To Supersize Me

I'm not a collector of larger-sized items like bats, gloves, jerseys and such, not even baseballs. I used to have a dozen or so signed baseballs but most of those are gone now. I had a Nolan Ryan signed seat back from the old Arlington Stadium, that's been sold. No room to display them, so why have them if they just sit in a box in the closet right? 

I've had bats, in fact I used to have a small bat collection. The only ones left are a Dick Schofield model that was his when he played for the Angels in the 90's and a signed Harmon Killebrew that was recently given to me. Again, I just don't have the room.

But I'm more than happy to get a relic card like those above. Just a piece of a bat is more like it.

Numbered cards are really nice too.

These all came in a TCDB trade with MMehler30.

These recently came in from Stuart...

...as a "glad you're back to blogging" gift.

Pretty sweet Collectors Edge clear cards.

And that Jansen is numbered to 25, very nice.

Thanks Stuart!

And a TCDB trade with levelbrickblow:

What? An Indians logo card? 

It's a checklist I need, same with the Rolen.

And another with bcmeeker:

Antwine is the only Patriot in the 1970 Topps Super Glossy set.

And finally a trade with LoQtus (The Collective Mind)

That Napoli is the SP catching variation.

Are you a collector of large items?
