    Ok... someone show some real high-end items.
    Love Sinatra, but my thing is Beatles / Dylan and
    King Crimson. personal items, autographs, test pressings,
    acetates, etc etc.
    C'mon friends, please show some true rarities. Period pieces
    rather than commerative stuff.
    I absolutely mean no disrespect or smugness, so let's see
    some original rarities... I know your out there.

    Actually, after he died I heard Nancy say that when they were going through his stuff they couldn't find any of his hats. So if she ain't got 'em...

    Like I said, it took me years to collect them all. The track listings of these four 1996 CDs were posted above. Interesting collections, but nothing really special, EXCEPT for the track "If You Are But A Dream" on Vol. I. Until 2007, when it was issued in Romance: Songs from the Heart, this was the only appearance of that recording on an USA-issued CD.

    The collectible here was the MasterCard itself. Let's return this thread to NON-musical items... :)

    Image of Frank seems to be derived from the SWINGIN' LOVERS! redux cover.

    I think Rupert Holmes just got a swingin' idea for a song.

    [ I notice that the images in my earlier post about the Swooners softball team have moved. This is a repost. ]

    From Nancy Sinatra's book:

    SUMMER–FALL 1947: On weekends in Los Angeles, Dad led a softball team, the Swooners, in games against other celebrity teams at various locations such as the Hollywood Bowl Field and Gilmore Field (now home to CBS Television City). He played second base in a lineup that included manager Hank Sanicola, actors Anthony Quinn and Barry Sullivan and songwriters Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne. They even had their own cheerleaders: Virginia Mayo, Marilyn Maxwell, Shelley Winters and Ava Gardner.

    Al Sylvani, Barry Sullivan, Robert Young, David Nelson, Sammy Cahn, Jule
    Styne, Hank Sanicola and Frank Sinatra.
    Right: Frank Sinatra and the Swooner Bat Girls: Virginia Mayo (standing),
    Ava Gardner, Marilyn Maxwell and Shelley Winters.

    Since this thread has recent posts, the other day I came across a problem with the Sinatra Treasures book with Charles Pignone's name on the front. This is the book with facsimiles of tickets,programs,etc. and at least for me, the treasure of a full size repo LP slick of what would have been Sinatra/Jobim. (If you are looking for a copy of this,there are plenty of remainder copies around-don't pay a lot.) The facsimiles are tucked in envelopes throughout the book. Problem is the artifacts were starting to stick to the bags they are enclosed in. One item became stuck to a bag(I got it separated but it took a while to dry out). The room where this is stored in houses all of my books,CDs,vinyl,etc. and I've never had a problem with anything else with heat,light,etc. Took the things all out,put them in individual PVC-free protectors and placed them in my CD books of Frank(now numbering three:RCA,Columbia-Capitol(including Duets) and Reprise. If you haven't visited your book recently,take moment to browse though it.

    Love the slick too, but it's not really 12" x 12" is it? More like 15" x 10" IIRC.

    Matt,
    That was where Television City is now. And there are rumors that it's going bye bye.
