He won All-Star MVP in his last year as an All-Star and his last year as a player. This is HOT!!! On MLB.com, an identical Ripken doll just sold for $707!

We are selling the very same one, the 2001 All-Star, numbered, limited edition, mint in-the-box/never opened Ripken bobble head doll. (Remember, these are Limited Edition, complete with a limited edition certificate, and in a collector's presentation box.)

These were bought up right after FanFest began. (They were available only at FanFest, but sold out very quickly, days before the All-Star game even took place! That's how popular Cal Ripken, Jr. is this year. It's also testimony to the fact that savvy investors, collectors and sports memorabilia store owners knew that the 2001 All-Star Game Bobble Dobbles^TM  were the most valuable of any this year.

They made only 2,001 total. Because this is Cal's last year in Major League Baseball, this fact alone makes this particular bobble head doll worth more than any other produced. Additionally, he was the All-Star Game Most Valuable Player, the only player to ever win it twice! Plus, America—the world—responded in a final week flurry of internet voting to make sure he went from third in the All-Star voting to first, beating out David Bell for the starting position. This particular bobble head commemorates these historic, final All-Star Game moments like no other bobble head could ever do.

We cannot stress enough how much more valuable and important, from a collector's standpoint, this Cal Ripken, Jr. 2001 All-Star bobble head is in comparison to any other Cal Ripken, Jr. bobble head ever made. No other Ripken bobble head, of which there are few, is part of a numbered series.

Additionally, this Cal Ripken, Jr. 2001 All-Star Game Bobble Dobbles^TM come in a red, white and blue collector's presentation display box.

Remember, the first year and the final year of a player are the critical years for baseball memorabilia. (For this reason, we also have Ichiro 2001 All-Star Game bobble head dolls for sale, both white and blue.) Cal Ripken, Jr. crafted a storybook career. He blazed the trail for the current generation of shortstops like Jeter and A-Rod. (This is why A-Rod had Cal play short for the first inning of the All-Star Game.) He set the record for most consecutive games played, a record that will most likely never be broken. The Iron Man of baseball capped off his career by an outstanding, final All-Star performance. He gave America what it wanted, and in the process, became the All-Star Game's MVP. 

Not everything connected with Cal Ripken, Jr. is valuable. Not every bobble head connected with Cal is valuable. However, this 2001 All-Star Game Cal Ripken, Jr. bobble head is very valuable—the most valuable—for the reasons stated above. Take this opportunity to commemorate Cal's last year in baseball and his final appearance as an All-Star, because once we're out, they're gone!
