On Deck

John Osterweil and Dan Lawrence from JWO Enterprises are flying in from Tampa this afternoon to decide which pieces will make it to auction in the upcoming months. We're looking through Jack's collection for some historic baseball signed pictures, sheets, baseballs and lithographs. Will post pictures of the latest pieces once they are framed and matted.
John and Dan take incredible, rare items and turn them into masterpieces. The next few weeks should be very exciting...
