I have been a sports memorabilia collector/dealer for nearly 60 years. I have held national auctions, private signings with MLB players and written columns on the hobby in regional newspapers and national magazines. I sold many items on eBay in the early 2000’s under the name j-rhodesenterprises and had 100% positive feedback. I once again have 100% positive feedback as I buy and sell these days.

While I still plan to actively collect, I have amassed many cards, publications, photographs, autographs and other oddball items that I am going to offer up to other collectors and dealers. These items are basically the last of what I am no longer collecting, so all these auctions will start with a minimum bid of $1 in hopes that these items will go to others who have a collecting interest in them.

Many of these items will be of Pittsburgh Pirates since I have collected Roberto Clemente items for nearly 60 years.  This is a team issue black and white of second baseman, Bill Mazeroski.  The exact year is hard to pin down but I have seen this for sale as the 1964 team issue and it does have that mid-60’s feel to it – i.e. black and white, uniform style and a leaner Maz.  This is in very good/excellent condition, sharp edges and only one slight bend on one corner.
