  • A Nellie Fox autograph
  • Any of the original 1962 Phillips “Here Come the Colts” magazines
  • A complete run of the 1999 Astros season tickets, which celebrate the franchise history
  • An uncut sheet of the twelve 1967 team issued cards
  • A Colt .45s bobblehead
  • The “Streaking Orbit” bobblehead
