FOLLOWING IS AN IMMACULATE COLLECTION OF AUTHENTIC 500 HOME-RUN PIECES, PERFECT FOR EVEN THE MOST SCRUTINOUS OF COLLECTORS. THIS LOT IS PERFECT FOR YOUR COMPANY GOLF TOURNAMENT, CHURCH RAFFLE OR JUST FOR KEEPING! Member of the 500 homerun club (as of the end of the 2013 baseball season) hand signed his respective baseball card, postcard, cut or album page which was then authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA, the leading third-party authenticator of sports memorabilia. That means you’ll receive an album page measuring 4″x6″ signed by Babe Ruth (714); cuts affixed to 3″x5″ index cards signed by Jimmie Foxx (534) and Mel Ott (511); Perez-Steele postcards signed by Mickey Mantle (536) and Ted Williams (521); and individual baseball cards signed by the following: Barry Bonds (762), Hank Aaron (755), Alex Rodriguez (692), Willie Mays (660), Ken Griffey, Jr. (630), Jim Thome (612), Sammy Sosa (609), Frank Robinson (586), Mark McGwire (583), Harmon Killebrew (573), Rafael Palmeiro (569), Reggie Jackson (563), Manny Ramirez (555), Mike Schmidt (548), Willie McCovey (521), Frank Thomas (521), Eddie Mathews (512), Ernie Banks (512), Gary Sheffield (509) and Eddie Murray (504). Note, Babe Ruth slab is much larger than are the Foxx and Ott pieces, scan isn’t to scale. Each of the above mentioned sluggers is or will be in the Hall-of-Fame (yes, even the steroid chompers) and each has been individually authenticated by PSA/DNA. One suggestion I have for giving this lot an added element of flair would be to get it framed. Just consider the symmetry and how perfectly it works. The keys are obviously the Ruth, Ott and Foxx pieces so they should anchor the collection with space at the very top. Put the big guy in the center with Ott and Foxx on the sides. There are 20 slabbed baseball cards so put them in four rows of five. Order them any way you like, I would suggest ranking them by homeruns hit – Bonds in the top left corner, Murray in the bottom right. Then, put the signed postcards of Mantle and Williams on the flanks. And maybe you apply a nice vintage style font at the top that reads, 500 Homerun Club.
