Your most favorite piece of Redskins memorabila you own

I'm not an autograph guy so I don't have any autographed items to choose from and nor am I into collecting figures.

So I guess I'd have to choose the one Redskins related item I own that I'd least want to lose in a house fire.

That item would be a magazine put out by the Washington Post after the Skins won SB17. It's called "The Season of Respect" and inside it's a compilation of some of the Post's stories & articles about the Redskins during the 1982 season.

This is the book that I would leaf through year after year and it kept the 82Redskins "alive" for me until I was actually able to acquire the games themselves about 5 years ago.

Another reason it's so valuable to me is because it was given to me by my father. He was working in DC at the time and he passed by the Post building all the time and they were selling this outside and he decided to suprise me and my cousin by getting each of us a copy.

a boarding pass signed by none other than steve spurrier. my mother-in-law works at dulles and snagged it for me.

whenever i think things cant get any worse for the skins, i look at that pass and shudder. it always makes me feel better.

My favorite piece of Skins memorabilia is my Art Monk Autographed lithograph /1500 that Art personally signed at JC Penney's back in the early 90's. Getting to meet him was just icing on the cake - talk about a TOP NOTCH dude!

I have some gamers and other auto'd stuff, but the Art Monk lithograph is my favorite!

Does anyone else have one, or know what I'm talking about? They made 4 different ones and each were #'d to 1500 and he personally signed each one when you bought it.

My small collection of framed cards given to me by my wife's cousin who ran a memorabilia shop in South Florida. He's not a fan but he knew I was.

I also have a beach towel my grandmother bought in 1974 that is still in good condition.

and, not pictured here, my newly acquired Sammy Baugh 33 Jersey.

Too many to pick one, tough call here...in no specific order

a. My Sean Taylor football card collection (386+, nine 1/1's, 4 autos*).

b. My Sean Taylor auto 17x22 photo of him sacking Mike Vick

c. My 70,000+ Redskins card collection

d. Auto Sammy Baugh rookie card (1948 Bowman)

e. My 3 Super Bowl Programs and football signed by each MVP and Joe Gibbs

f. The autographed picture of Joe Gibbs, my son and I

g. My 1973 complete Sunoco NFL stamp set

h. My 1972 ball signed by about 30+ players my uncle gave me when I was 8.

i. My personalized auto of the Riggins "run" picture.

j. The Redskins leather coat my wife bought me 12+ years ago (Carl Banks)

I guess that is my "Top 10"

* Sean Taylor did not sign any of his rookie cards during his rookie year, unless it was done in person, after the release of the cards.

I would have to say its my combination beer stein, with the bottle opener and a swiss army knife attachment. Its in burgundy with gold trim and plays hail to the redskins when ever you open the knife portion. It has an autograph of Otto Graham but that part is nearly worn away due to excessive game day drinking.
