“In the scope of sports memorabilia and collectibles, oftentimes the most valuable objects are those when an athlete clinches a championship, it really represents the apex of their career. And so, to have objects where Tom Brady actually won a championship — so, we have these cleats from the Super Bowl with this armband from the Super Bowl, including the amazing Comeback, where he came back from 28 to 3, those things are really relished by collectors. And then in terms of some of the other objects of clothing, we have his jerseys from Michigan. And just for context, I don’t think that a single Michigan jersey has ever emerged until this auction. So, to have, you know, throughout his playing career at Michigan, including his final college game, it’s a pretty amazing selection.”
