AboutDuke Ha Expertise I have extensive knowledge of the 1990's-Present Dallas Cowboys teams. Specifically, team uniforms, equipment, and so forth. I own numerous Cowboys memorabilia and would love to one day write a book on the evolution of the team's uniforms dating back to their inception in 1960. I may not be able to answer most Cowboys questions prior to the 1990's as I was but a youth at the time :-).
Experience I make annual trips to see the Cowboys at Texas Stadium. I have a library of Cowboys books, dvd's and VHS tapes. I have recorded nearly all games dating back since the 1998 season. I am an artist, so most of my collections such as cards and photos are not for value, but rather for reference. I appreciate the asthetics of the Cowboys and the game of football. As a hobby, I customize and paint McFarlane Dallas Cowboy figures to near exact detail as their live counterparts. I own several game used items, autographs, and roughly 10-12 authentic jerseys with 3 different manufacturers.
Publications I have no known publications. However, as of October 16, 2006, my written work and art has mostly been seen on the Wikipedia topic the Dallas Cowboys- uniforms/logos.
Education/Credentials Associates of Arts in Liberal Arts, Associates of Arts in Graphic Design, Bachelor of Arts in Studio Arts with emphasis in Illustration. My dream would be, of course, to work for the Dallas Cowboys organization possibly for their marketing and design team. The Dallas Cowboys annual bluebooks and game programs have always interested me.
Expert: Duke Ha Date: 7/16/2008 Subject: TRIPLETS AUTOGRAPHED PHOTO
Question Hey I was wondering and hey I know you're not an expert, just asking. I have 3 photo's put into a frame of the TRIPLETS they are all authentic photos. How much do you think it's worth. It was bought back in like 2001/ 2002. Any info would be helpful. Thanks
Answer Hey Tony,
ooh..pricing is not my area of expertise as you know, but a frame with THE Triplets is a priceless treasure. To be honest, memorabilia of any sort be it comic books, cards, jerseys, or whatever is a tricky thing. Now atleast with comics and cards there is usually a pricing guide that tells you the ballpark worth based upon the condition of the item. But there are none for things such as photos, footballs, or jerseys. It really is only worth what the person that purchases it from you, is willing to pay for it.
Now of course you do not want to sell yourself short on such a nice piece should you decide to sell it. My best advice for you is to determine how popular the players are (in this case The Triplets: owner of 3 Superbowl rings and all or future Hall of Famers) then scan the Dallas Cowboys website or Ebay and see how much photos of them are worth. If they are autographed, of course it will be worth much more. Also include the price of the frame and how elegant it is. Such as, is it matted or double matted? Does it include any extra stuff like pins, a plaque, a coin, a die cut star? Whatever the case, the "worth" is something only you and the buyer can determine. Hope that helps and thanks for asking!!!
