New Jersey attic yields massive stash of signed, vintage baseball cards, may be worth millions



After James Micioni died in March at age 97, a collection of rare and valuable sports memorabilia was discovered among his possessions in the attic of his home, including a hand-signed baseball card of former New York Yankees great Babe Ruth.
Micioni was from Boonton, N.J., and was known as "Uncle Jimmy." He had a collection of more than 1,000 vintage baseball cards and collectible items, which are expected to go for a total of several million dollars at auction, NJ.com reported.
The signed 1933 Ruth card alone is expected to sell for more than $100,000. Micioni had six of them -- each hand-signed by the celebrated Sultan of Swat. He also owned a signed Lou Gehrig card from the same year.
Micioni used to write to photographers, as well as baseball players, and received original photos in return.
