Bought a collection...

I'm pretty private about my collecting habits, so I don't run across many collections. But a friend of my wife called the other day and said she needed to get rid of her deceased husband's baseball stuff. He was 84 when he died and was a former scout with the Royals. We drove over today and bought the whole kit and kaboodle. Guess what was in it....
Pictures to follow when I get home.

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

Implies more memoribilia than cards.
I can definitely see some original scouting reports (read: George Brett), perhaps even some copies of signing sheets/contracts.
Team signed and individually inscribed baseballs
World Series rings.
World Series Trophy.
Some uniforms.
Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.

In all seriousness - I'm excited at the idea of it being a bunch of old Royals stuff.

Anyway, to answer the question, I'm guessing there's some cool George Brett stuff in this story, and I'll also
venture to say there are some cool world series and playoff stuff in there too.
Congrats on the find !!!
They call me "Pack the Ripper"

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
Not worth the camera battery required to flash
This shoe box looks like my show inventory from 1989.
