Caps, shirts, bobble head dolls, posters, cards, autographs, etc? It's funny, because I never see any post about this. I wonder what a YM rookie card sells for. Raven
the only thing i have ever collected is rockets on the cover of magazines. im hoping one day when i get a nice house that i will be able to frame them and put them up in my game room.

You know why you never see any memorabelia posts? Because there is a whole other forum for memorabelia. Rockets Classifieds is the area where most memorabelia discussion is going to take place, since memorabelia has very little to do with game action and/or roster moves.
Yao, Cat, Steve, Mooch, Clutch, Rudy Bobbleheads (Mo in the post) Ball signed by last years team Both Yao Life size posters Yao and Dream jerseys (Cat and more Yao in the post) Rockets red shirt Pyjama shorts

Bull autographed some random stuff for us from back in the Matt Bullard Fan Club days. My fave: Chance hooked us up with some CD's of his 90's classic "Air Bull", which Matt gladly autographed
Complete original sheet of Starter cards for the 93 championship team given out at one of the games during that seaason. Complete set of San Diego Rockets basketball cards from the innagural season. Pretty much all the bobble heads given out at the games over the last two seasons. A couple of celebri-ducks (can't remember which at the moment) Two autographed basketballs: One from the last season with Drexler, Barkley and Olajuwon and one from last year 2002-03. One autographed Comets basketball from their fourth championship.
Looking at my 'Wall of Fame', (all bought off Ebay), I have autographed pictures of Steve, Cat, and Yao (2), Hakeem (showing Robinson how to Dunk, 95 series) and Calvin Murphy. Pennents from the 94 & 95 World Champions, current Rockets pennent and also a pennent from the 95 Season with the team caticultures (sp) on it. I have a Rudy autographed card from 1968, and a multitude of Rockets Tshirts, Shirts, Blazers and Hats. My most prized possesion-I10 shootout Tshirt from the 95 season against the Spurts. Still, the Spurts fans (friends) are uneasy watching the I10 rivalry here, they remember (still) very clearly, the dissapointment of the 94/95 playoffs. Go Rocks.
A limited edition Eddie Griffin autographed bobble head doll. I guess that's what I get for playing with dolls.
