Baltimore Orioles Autographed Memorabilia
Maryland’s big league club, the Baltimore Orioles have a storied history featuring a lengthy list of Hall of Fame players. The Orioles have spent their franchise’s existence solely in the American League. The “hay day” of the Orioles was between 1963 and 1983 where they hoisted the World Series trophy three separate times. During that span, the Orioles won 5 MVP Awards. The fans inside Camden Yards have watched some of the best players of all-time suit up every day for the black, orange and white. Players like Cal Ripken Jr., Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson and Jim Palmer would be the Mount Rushmore of Orioles baseball. Memorabilia collectors like to get their hands on Cal Ripken Jr autographs.

Cal Ripken was a magician as shortstop in his early years then transitioned over to third base later in his career. Cal’s bat was what got him into Cooperstown. Cal Ripken Jr. recorded 3,184 career hits and 431 home runs. Ripken memorabilia has always been a strong seller in the memorabilia world. Cal Ripken Jr. signed jerseys, photos and baseballs are the top items to collect. Cal’s autograph is consistent and displays perfectly.

In 2013 he not only became the first Oriole third baseman to win a Gold Glove since Brooks Washington (1975) he also earned the American League Platinum Glove winner, given to the best fielder in the league.
In 2015 he set career marks for average (.286) home runs (35) and RBI (86), earned his second All Star berth and won his second Gold Glove. His 35 homers is a franchise record for third basemen.

Machado also established himself as a solid value on the collector’s market by getting better in 2016. He’s hitting a career best .303 and is on pace to surpass his home run and RBI totals from last season. In August, he added another line to what may be a Hall of Fame resume when he belted a home run in each of the first three innings against the White Sox in Chicago as his 7 RBI led the Orioles to a 10-2 win. Splitting time between third and shortstop (he’s committed only 8 errors through 119 games) Machado is a favorite to win his third Gold Glove.

Midwest Sports Spectacular Quite the Spectacle

Derek Dye

Buckeyes fan flocked to the 3rd Annual Midwest Sports Spectacular this past weekend in Columbus.  Saturday & Sunday’s attendance set records for not only the MWSS show, but also rivaled any United States autograph signing in recent memory!  The true strength of Buckeye Nation was clear as they got to bid farewell to some of the greats from the 2014 Championship Team.  Fan favorite, Ezekiel Elliott was blown away by the over 800 fans who lined up to wish him good luck and reminisce on the magical times they shared at Ohio State.  Zeke went on to tweet, “#BuckeyeNation showing me much luv today! You honor me and I luv you! #GoBucks!”.  Potential 1st pick in the NFL Draft, Joey Bosa was astonished by the support and tweeted, “Thanks everyone for coming out today! Best damn fans in the land!”.  Over 3,000 people visited the show and can take home awesome memories from a truly special weekend.  Many of the athletes were humbled by the turn out and the stories of fans making the trek through Winter Storm Jonas in order to meet their heroes.  We would like to thank all of the athletes for being so engaging to their loyal fans.  And thank you to all who made it out to the 3rd Annual Midwest Sports Spectacular!2

Customer Reviews:

“The show was phenomenal. They staff did the best they could with what they had. The ticket office had three people doing will call tickets at all times. 2 people were doing walk ups. (Btw the people in the ticket office worked exrtemly hard for 8 hrs with no breaks of any kind to accomadate all the fans) Some people ordered hundreds of tickets and they had to do an inventory of what that person bought to make sure the customer got what he paid for. The signings were very organized, the vendors were awesome and the merchandise at the ticket office was some of the cheapest I have ever seen at a signing. The photos were also official licensed OSU photos. Great job guys! I will be back next year. Bosa signed for 800 people and they had to turn away 600 people (because there jist wasn’t enough time to sign anymore). It was not the shows fault that OSU fans are the best fans around and wanted to show their support. AND to Bosa s credit he was extremely sick and was going to cancel but he didn’t want to dissapointhis fans. Great job everyone! First class people. One of the best attended shows ever in Ohio!!!”

“This was first time attending this event, but it won’t be the last! All the staff were super friendly and helpful bothbefore the event when I called to ask questions and during the event. I thought it was very well organized and the lines moved pretty quickly. I had a problem with one of the signings I purchased- the time changed for cardale and I was unable to make it, but the staff was very helpful and offered a refund or to have my item signed for me. I opted to have the item signed for me and unfortunately it got missed, but the staff made sure I got one of the signed pictures they had done in exchange and made sure I got exactly what I wanted- which I did. I don’t think they could have handled my little snafu any better-They really understandcustomer service and genuinely wanted to make sure everyone was happy. Thank you for everything and we will be back!”

“This was my first time attending this event, and I loved every minute of it! Every staff member I spoke with was extremely kind and helpful. I had some questions before the event occurred and one of the staff was so quick to respond and I was very appreciative of their time to help. During the event the staff were also very helpful and always willing to take a moment to point people in the right direction or answer any questions about merchandise or tickets. I loved meeting all the players and thought that the lines all moved very quickly and were well organized. I hope next year there are more vendors and more space in general, but the event was so fun and so well organized. Thanks!”
