What is it Worth? Thread to ask about baseball collectibles and their value.

Just found a bunch of random Brewers items going through storage totes, what are these items worth?

 

-Chalet bank

 

-Uecker bobblehead in box, unwrapped (still has styrofoam box inserts and wrapped in plastic). It's the standard bobblehead box with a Pepsi logo and the others in the series were Yount and Jenkins.

 

-Have a snow globe in the box, but something happened where the water is dirty. Anyone else have this issue?

 

I'm going to keep digging and see what else I've got. Depending on value I may want to sell some of this stuff.

Had no idea the chalet was that valuable.

 

Thanks for the info.

I have this Milwaukee Braves medallion from 1957, I think. I've looked everywhere to find more information on it, but to no avail. It's approximately 1 3/8" in diameter. Anyone here maybe have some info?

Anyone know anything about this? The album itself looks like it has never been played, and the jacket, especially the front is almost perfect. As you can see, the back has slight damage. Has anyone ever seen this before? It is from 1972 and says as advertised on TV. I thought it might have been a give-away, maybe a gas station or someting until I saw that it was actually advertised on TV...

Where do you see them sell for 5 or 6 bucks? Ebay? I search ebay for brewer itmes frequently, have never seen this before.

 

My Dad picked it up for $1 at a flea market, he just thought it was cool, so he grabbed it for me.

The local Milwaukee (West Allis) show every month has an auction. Half of the auction items are Brewers, Packers, and Bucks type stuff. The other half is of other sports collectibles such as starting lineups, autographs, magazines, and so-on. I've seen it there a few times the last year.

 

I search the new Brewers stuff on ebay everyday and have probably seen the record once or twice in the last year. I only search by newly listed items and watch the things I'm interested in, so I don't know if any actually sold on ebay.

I guess this is as good of place as any to post this since I don't wanna start a new thread for it, but did anyone get that catchers gear that was listed last week? I was outbid by a dollar. Which is probably for the better, but I missed out on the Surhoff ones that popped up about a year ago. Neat item. Unfortunately I wasn't at home to watch the bidding last minute. 100 was all I could go up to.

I did see that and I thought briefly about it, but I don't think that stuff was attributed to a specific player, and there was something about one of the pics that I thought was a little sketchy.

 

I too would like to grab some catching gear at some point, though, so hopefully when we're both ready, there will be two sets!

hey guys, I have fallen out of the bobblehead hobby quite a bit, I'm wondering if Milwaukee Admirals Bobbleheads have any worth at all? I'm in Madison and am not at home, but I tried looking on ebay and did not see any Pekka Rinne ones listed, does anyone know what the value of the Rinne is?

 

Also ones like Tootoo, Weber, Sheets, Roscoe...I can't think of what other ones I have...

 

Thanks!

I'd be interested in the Sheets Admirals bobble, but I have to admit, I'm not willing to pay a premium price for it.

 

There is currently one on ebay with no bids at $31.99 plus shipping. 21 hours left. The last one did sell for that same amount from the same seller.

Bikeage- I got the catcher's gear last week. I thought I was a neat-unique piece. Now that I have it I really don't know what I'm going to do with it. The more I get into this stuff the more I feel like a hoarder. I could have saved myself some money and bought it the week before when it ended at $75 with no bids. Oh well.

Hey guys, I had this cut autograph of Ray Nitschke that I got slabbed by PSA a few years back and then I got it framed with this 16x20 photo...does anyone know what this might be worth? I know that Nitschke's autograph unpersonalized is worth a decent amount, but this is only on an index card...any help would be appreciated...thanks

They usually catch about 40-75 on ebay. Lately it seems they have been going for closer to 50. Those weren't the SGA's they were available for purchase at the fan zone I believe. The giveaways came seperate and were from Jewel Osco (Sexson), Pick N Save (Aaron), and Piggly Wiggly (Sheets). The ones you have are sponsored by Pepsi.

I have on separate 1957 game programs:

 

1957 Milwaukee Braves - Fair condition.

 

1957 Brooklyn Dodgers - Fair condition.

 

All the big names are on there. Aaron, Mathews, Spahn, Burdette, Koufax, Drysdale, Snider, Campy, etc...

 

Wouldn't sell either of them as they are family treasures. My Dad got them as a boy after a game. I guess all the players went to a bar or restaurant after the game.

 

Just wondering if anyone could even make a guess.

Though it's not clear, I'm assuming they're signed. It's probably not an accurate guess, but 1500 for the Braves. 2000 for the Dogers? Something that you may want to look into is getting them authenticated through PSA. They do on site grading, and there will be a show in Rosemont, IL in late june.

You could always walk around to dealers and ask. You can be upfront and tell them your not selling, and most of them will give you some ballpark idea.
