Is it a jersey, autograph, tee shirt, photo, and or a memory?
I have a number of autographs, jerseys, and photos. (and memories)
But my favorite, is a practice jersey.
The COWBOY'S organization, in 1996 or 7, was selling off game worn and practice jerseys , pants, shoes, footballs, gloves etc. for charity.
You could order practice jerseys for about $20 each. You couldn't order size, color, or a player's particular number. (I couldn't afford $15,000 for a game worn 8 or 22 jersey.)
They sent out jerseys at random. So I ordered a couple. I got back an Alvin Harper's APEX practice jersey 80. (white with blue numbers) And I got back this other jersey, with the number 71 on it. It was a size 3XL. Obviously, it was Mark Tuinei's practice jersey. Mark was 6 foot 5 inches tall and 314 pounds. (I am 6 foot and 195)
The jersey is big on me, but it's my favorite COWBOY'S collectible. ..............nothing like The Great Wall Of DALLAS.
Staubach once called Mark, the gentle giant. Tuinei played 195 games for the COWBOYS.
