Baseballs TTM
I cant seem to find the original thread i was looking for but someone said they had good luck with a cheaper version of the Rawlings baseballs but dont remember the name. Think it may have been ROLB or something of that nature. Came across these but dont think they was talking about these.

please point me in the right direction to find that original thread or let me know what you use for lesser know players. I dont want something that will fade after a year or so though.
Thanks.

Riggs, there's nothing like a ROMLB for graphs but out of the almost 300 signed baseballs that I have, probably 40 are CROLBs. I always carry 1-2 with me in ST. As long as the ball has a real "leather cover", the sig should be fine. I have graphs that are over 5 years old on these balls and they have not faded. That's why I usually don't bother getting in the discussion threads when people "poo-poo" these balls. Of course, I never use them for the super stars and/or HOF'ers - just in case...

Yeah, it's an old post but the method still works. Below are a few pics of part of my collection of baseballs. Unfortunately, many of the balls are stacked 3 deep on the shelves so I can't readily see them but I know who's back there - LOL!

Epic collection.. When you have some down time ( i know thats not going to happen very soon with the amount of IP/ TTMing you do but) you should start a show & tell thread or even go for the TTM or Memrobilia super collector just to show off your collection. I for one would love to look at it & see some of the amazing successes u have. Just the ball collection alone looks amazing & if i was a betting man, i doubt that makes up 15% of your collection.. Puts my baseball collection of 6 to shame 
But living in iowa, really limits my ip opportunities. There is always the Bob Feller museum. They always have legends of the game coming in but they charge a premium. Again though, sick stuff..

Riggs, thank you for the kind words. The pictures here are only showing about 80% of the baseballs I own. If you look around, you can see a few other items in the pics like, a portion of my signed mini-helmets, hats, gloves, etc. I even noticed that the pic of my prized toy was covered up, my 2002 Mustang GT convertible. It only has 20K miles & I hardly ever drive it anymore because of the crazy drivers in FL!
I suspect that the member who has the most stuff has to be Rockies33Fan!
