Tampa Doctor Leaves Family $20 Million Baseball Card Collection
Dr. Thomas Newman of Tampa died earlier this year due to COVID-19. He was a retired doctor and avid collector of baseball cards and sports memorabilia. His family, however, had no idea how much the man’s collection was worth. When they took the collection to an appraiser for an upcoming auction, it was valued at approximately $20 million dollars. The family says it’s all for sale, including an ultra rare Babe Ruth card from 1933. Aucioneers value that card alone at over $5 million dollars. The man had been collecting for the last 40 years. He also had cards from Mickey Mantle, Ty Cobb, Lou Gehrig and Cy Young. There are still boxes of unopened cards at the doctor’s office. Source: WFLA.com
Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny.
That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards.
After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind.
He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex.
He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
