He liked baseball cards

Jimmy Micioni died in March at 97. He collected baseball cards since he was 9 years old. And he collected tons of them. Many of them are autographed, some by Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx. They all found a place on his basement walls. Some of the cards date back to the 1930s. Specialists in the field have said that the cards are "valued at north of $1 million, but could ultimately sell for several million." A Babe Ruth card was recently sold for $153,400.


 
The "Uncle Jimmy Collection" could ultimately sell for several million dollars, according to authenticators.
