Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hi all, As many know, for Stevens', Daneyko's, and Niedermayer's jersey retirements, the Devils gave out a free commemorative 9"x12" jersey retirement photo (along with the mini-banners of course)...and for some odd reason, the photos were not given out on either Brodeur's nor Elias' special nights. Kinda blows, in that they were pretty sweet, and look damned good hung up. Fortunately, MITB first created a killer 8.5"x11" Brodeur photo, and has now created an equally killer 8.5"x11" Elias photo. Thanks to him, I have a complete collection, and couldn't be happier with his work. Thank you so much MITB, sincerely...hopefully Hall makes his way there someday (if he does, a hell of a lot went right!). 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Looks awesome! I really need to get around to hanging my stuff one the walls one day, I have the room and so much stuff I could do but I've never been motivated to do any of it.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thanks guys. Lots of stuff collected over many moons. It's my basement, but it's a walkout, so it feels more like another floor. Best thing about it is that when my daughter's not watching with me, I can throw sh!tfits without it pissing off my wife too much. I once threw a remote so hard that it bounced off the couch and dented the wall. Fortunately I was able to patch and paint it, no problem. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was gonna say the same thing... where'd you get that oak barrel, and is it real? Been thinking of grabbing one on Amazon for a couple hundred bucks. 9 hours ago, Colorado Rockies 1976 said: That was only a small part of it, heh heh Oh I know, I've seen some of the pictures before, just commenting on the banners since that seemed to be the newest addition That bar though....freaking awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been thinking of grabbing one on Amazon for a couple hundred bucks. Oh I know, I've seen some of the pictures before, just commenting on the banners since that seemed to be the newest addition That bar though....freaking awesome. I bought the oak barrel from the previous homeowner...he originally had it in the corner to the right of the bar, but I liked it too much to keep it there...I wanted it in a more "busy" area of the room, so I moved it to where it is now. The "real deal" fully-finished ones cost a good bit more than a couple hundred...closer to $700-$1000, depending upon where you look. Quality on these vary, but you definitely don't want to go cheap on one. The area above the red wall has been tweaked since I last posted photos here...added some photos, found a NOS Devils Opening Night banner that I had to have, so I took down a KC Scouts banner and swapped the Opening Night one in, and added the Devils logo neon light. I have a good bit of Mets and Patriots stuff as well in different parts of the room. I did a good bit of revamping/upgrading last year, but now there's really nothing left to do...in a way it's kind of depressing...it was always fun tracking down some "gotta have it" photo or item. Every so often I'll see something that has me thinking "hmmmmmmm"...but there really isn't room for anything else. The one last thing I might get is a Mets 1986 World Series bat (blue, signed by the team), but I'm no rush on that one. Hall is very quickly making a case for deserving some wall space...just not sure what to swap out. If he re-signs here, that will probably force my hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bunch of people asked for the Brodeur photo, so I can assume a few people will want their hands on a digital version of the Elias banner as well. Pretty simple; send a donation to NJDevs (they take Venmo and PayPal) and shoot me a PM with your e-mail address, I’ll email you the photo. Don’t need confirmation that you donated or anything, honor system works fine. Any amount you can send; DM and msweet run this place out of pocket and these contributions help. same deal goes for the Marty poster if anyone needs that as well. You can take the file to a local Kinkos and I’ll give you written print instructions to bring with you to get it exactly like CR’s got his. Staples can do it too, but watch them...quality seems to vary from store to store (for the Elias the colors weren't as vibrant when I went to the first Staples, and when I went to a different location and asked them to crop the edges, they chopped off too much and had to re-do it...to that second location's credit, they re-did it and the colors were fine, but suffice it to say that you may not want to have Staples do this for you).
