(ABOVE - HONUS WAGNER CARD WORTH $2.8 MILLION! Gary Cypres (ABOVE) has been collecting football, basketball, and baseball memorabilia for twenty years. He also has 18th-Century tennis rackets, arcade, and board games, among other interesting things.
Cypres plans to open the new LA Sports Museum on Nov.28th. There's a charge, but fans will probably flock there as it's been called the best sports memorabilia collection in the country, by industry experts. I have a high school buddy who lives in Redding, who I thought had the most impressive private collection of Dodger memorabilia around.
Cypres has an extensive collection of Dodger stuff worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. A bit out of my buddy's league, but he doesn't seem to mind as he was the one who told me about this new museum!
The LA Times has a good article on the fabulous collection. Click here to read more.
