The 8 days of Cal Ripken, Jr

Ironclad Authentics is celebrating Cal Ripken, Jr. day (8/8/08) with discounted prices on Ripken memorabilia. Essentially there's a new item of the day over an 8 day span. I thought some of you may be interested in checking it out. The item for the day is actually an item that I purchased 2 weeks ago. It's a signed 8 x 10 of Cal at the Gehrig monument in Yankee Stadium. He signed it with the inscrption of "The Ironman". Considering that it's framed and matted I don't think it's a bad price at $125. Here's the link:

Cool marketing idea with the 8/8/08. Did anyone do the same thing last year for Mantle on 7/7/07?

Nice concept, but I didn't see anywhere where they're selling a framed dual-signed 8x10 of Cal Ripken Jr. and his twin, Steve Wilkos.

maybe Billy can get 8 seconds of recognition on August 8th. Of course that would be roughly 7 seconds for the FF card and 1 highlighting his ML career.

Billy had the first RBI in Interleague play back in '97; You could probably win a few beers with that Trivia question...

For those who may have missed it, the item of the day was a Ripken/Aaron dual signed 16 x 20 for $199. It's apparently an edition of 100.

Happy early Cal Ripken, Jr., day.
