CHUMLEE: How are you doing? - Good.
Yourself? - Pretty good.
What can I do for you today?
I got some 1949 baseball cards here.
CHUMLEE: OK.
You got a good group of Hall of Famers here.
Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Babe Ruth, and Jackie Robinson,
some of the best ball players to ever play the game.
Where did you get these?
DAWN: So my sister's mother-in-law had passed away,
and those were in the estate.
OK.
So the cool thing about this is, these are 1949 Leaf cards.
JEFF: Right.
So the Leaf company was actually a candy company.
And I believe these would have been packaged with gum.
And that's how you would have got
most of your baseball cards-- JEFF: Right, right, right.
CHUMLEE: --you know, in this time period.
It's funny to think that these would have came in a $0.05 pack
of gum. DAWN: Yeah.
JEFF: Right, yeah.
CHUMLEE: And now, I mean, they're very valuable cards.
What are you looking to do with these?
Looking to sell them.
CHUMLEE: And how much are you looking to get?
$25,000 for the set.
OK.
[music playing]
Worth a little bit more than $0.05.
Yeah, yeah.
These are some of the most sought-after names
in baseball-card collecting.
It is cool that you got them graded by Beckett.
Beckett is one of the premier companies to grade with.
JEFF: Right.
CHUMLEE: I would love to buy these cards,
but I can't pay you $25,000 for them.
They will sell, but they will take a while.
Would you take $12,000 for them?
[exhales] Would you do 15?
Would you do 14 on them?
14.5.
You know, 14.2.
OK, deal.
All right, we got a deal.
14,200. - OK.
All right.
All right, you can take them up to the counter up there,
and they'll get you paid. - Thank you.
CHUMLEE: All right, thank you. - Thank you so much.
CHUMLEE: My pleasure. - Yeah, thanks.
Hi. What do we got here?
Hey.
So we have a 1957 Interfaith Baseball Game program.
And it was autographed by Joe E. Brown and Jackie Robinson.
Oh, wow.
So where'd you guys get it?
So about two years ago, we were
going through my grandfather's things,
and we actually found this in a big box of things.
And he passed away about 15 years ago.
And we've had it and had no idea.
COREY: OK, definitely kind of cool.
Do you mind if I go through it a little bit?
- Absolutely. - Absolutely.
COREY: It's the Interfaith Baseball Game,
obviously some kind of exhibition
baseball game that was put on.
They got some pretty major people in here.
We got President Eisenhower, Jackie Robinson, of course.
There you go.
There's Joe Brown.
Can you tell me much about this Joe E. Brown guy?
So he was a comedian turned baseball
player turned comedian again.
And we heard that he was friends with Jackie Robinson.
COREY: All right.
Jackie Robinson-- there's not enough you
can say about the guy.
I mean, baseball was, like, the thing he was worst at.
I mean, he was good at every single sport
he played in college at UCLA.
Of course, you know, he broke the color barrier
and started playing for the Brooklyn Dodgers,
and retired with a 330 batting average.
And when he finished up his career,
the guy didn't stop at baseball.
A lot of people don't know, he owned a bank.
Oh wow.
Yeah, I had no idea.
He was a big member of the NAACP.
He was a massive, massive businessman.
The guy is definitely one of the most phenomenal Americans
of the 20th century.
So how much are you looking to get for it?
So we were hoping to get $10,000 for it.
[music playing]
So the problem that we're going to face
is, this is not the ideal thing you want
Jackie Robinson's signature on.
Baseball-- you could probably see that for it, you know,
especially a game ball.
You also have this other guy that signed it.
These two guys really don't have much to do with each other.
If you had a bunch of other baseball players
and Jackie Robinson, yes.
But Joe Brown is just not that famous.
You know, I just can't justify spending that kind of money
on it, guys.
If anything, I would suggest you guys hold
onto it for a while longer.
I'd have to pass. - All right.
Well, thank you very much.
I really appreciate you guys coming down, though.
Have fun. MADISON: Thank you.
JOHN: Thank you very much.
