Greetings and Happy Thanksgiving.

With the U.S. Congress unable to enact any laws to help the economy and most of Europe weighed down in debt, you can be sure silver and gold are going to be volatile.  This month as the U.S. Dollar got stronger compared to the Euro, gold and silver dropped 5.5% and 13%, respectively.  As the next disaster looms, you can be sure gold and silver will go up and down like a yo-yo.  No matter what the precious metals do, we are always buying and selling.

Who's hotter than Rob Gronkowski?  Here are highlights

from the Patriots / Chiefs game.  We have a few Gronkowski Rookie cards in the store.

Tyler Seguin is a bonafide superstar.  This year he is leading the super hot Bruins in points (21) and in game winning goals (3). Is there no stopping the Bruins. Oh, did I mention, the hat trick?  Collectors who picked up his rookie card last year at ridiculously high prices can now feel vindicated.

New Additions this week:  Boys of Boston Beautifully Framed and Signed $1695.00, David Oritz Game Worn and Signed Practice Cleat ($150.00) and Batting Glove (125.00).

Anything with Babe Ruth is always going to be in demand.  He is the granddaddy of all baseball figures.

1940 Boston Red Sox Team Signed Ball - Jimmie Foxx / Ted Williams / Joe Cronin / Moe Berg, JSA LOA $1695.00.  Jimmie Foxx is a tough signature to attain.  A singlle signed Foxx can for as much as $20,000.00

1940 Play Ball #40 Hank Greenberg SGC 86 NM+ 7.5 PSA Detroit Tigers $795.00.  Pre-1948 cards is where the advanced collector concentrate their collections.  Few survive today compared to the billions everyone saves today.

1958 Topps #130 Jackie Jensen PSA 9 MINT $275.00.  There are very wealthy people out there who will bid this card up so they can have the very best 1958 Topps set in the world.  There are only (15) graded in MINT condition. I bet there are more than (15) collectors out there trying to make a MINT set.

1963 Post Cereal #193 Gil Hodges Hand Cut PSA 9 MINT $150.00. Do you know PSA will only grade these cards if all the black lines are still present.  Laughable.  These cards were cut by kids off their cereal boxes.  As kids, weren't we told to cut on the line?

1986-87 Fleer #57 Michael Jordan Rookie BGS 8.5 NM/MT+ $800.00

Just like Babe Ruth, Michael Jordan is the king of basketball. Due to the colored corners, this is a difficult card to find in this condition.

2000 Bowman #236 Tom Brady Rookie PSA 9 MINT $60.00

As a rule of thumb, it's easier to explain why an older item might be in demand in the future.  This card is new and they made a lot of them so I'm on the fence about collecting this Tom Brady card, however, short term, Tom Brady cards will be in demand as long as he can potentially break football records or win another Super Bowl.

2005 Bowman Sterling Jacoby Ellsbury RC Auto MINT #114/199 $180.00.  Only 199 made.  He's young and he has a bright future in baseball.  Being on the Red Sox adds to his marquee value.

Mickey Mantle Signature on a Perez Steele Postcard PSA/DNA $250.00.  Lot of fake Mantle items out there.  Best to get one with a great pedigree (PSA/DNA).  Besides the COA, this postcard really looks great, the illustration and the signature are striking.

Willie Mays Signed Baseball COA Scoreboard $149.00.  Some consider the best all around player ever.  At $149.00, doesn't that seem like a pittance compared to what today's athletes demand for their signatures?
