Calling all Brewers game used collectors-

[mattsr0625]

So over the past few days I have been in discussion with the team about their game used items and getting more involved with the collectors. As it turns out, they are in the beginning stages of starting a memorabilia museum and are looking to acquire more items. Seeing as I have a pretty good relationship with them, they asked that I reach out to fellow collectors to see if they would be interested in selling/donating/loaning the team specialty or significant items to be displayed. For example, they recently obtained the Braun debut jersey for this exhibit. I personally am putting up my CC Sabathina Brewers home debut HR bat, and possibly a few other items.

 

Ideally, they are looking for items from 1970-present. Anything with historical significance, milestone games, etc. Newer items would need to be authenticated.

 

If you would be interested in hearing more about this or would like to be a part of this, please contact me and I will put you in touch directly with the team. I can be reached at mbasquez@outlook.com.

 

Thanks,

Matt

The Brewers really missed. He boat on this. Fingers and Yount recently in the past couple of years put up much of their memorabilia up for auction.

I have a piece that I bought from Heritage Auctions some years back and out of the blue, I got a series of offers to buy the piece from an anonymous bidder.

 

I wondered if it was someone from the team for a project like this, since the offers were pretty relentless. I finally took the "make an offer" off, as I don't really want to sell. But it was tempting. I still wonder who wanted that jersey so badly.

I've got a ball I got during BP about 15 years ago. You think they would be interested in that?

Unless they were the buyer on some of the items. They wouldn't disclose all of the items that they have purchased, but from what it sounds like its going to be impressive. Items that would both the causal fan and collector would remember vividly. Either way, I'm excited.

Great! They should have a museum. The team is nearly 50 years old, and there is a rich history that should be told.

Did you tell them about my Sabathia socks yet? I'm waiting!
