A valuable collection of pre-War baseball cards and memorabilia is missing after a burglary in Burlington, VT last week.
Police say a homeowner returned to his residence around 9:30 PM November 20 and discovered the break-in. He’s now offering a reward of $30,000 according to Vermont Public Radio.
Among the items stolen from the six-figure collection were vintage baseball cards of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Honus Wagner, Mickey Mantle and others, a baseball signed by members of the 1928 Yankees and other items. Police say the homeowner was still compiling a list of missing items and no specifics on exactly which cards were taken was provided.
A local card shop owner interviewed by VPR says the collector apparently kept a low profile and a member of the Net54 forum with knowledge of the burglary indicated the stolen items were not graded.
