I'm loving this! A new thread to revive - Don Bradman's legendary 'baggy green' cap just sold for a whoppin' £232k ! It's mind-blowing to think that this cap was hidden away from the public eye for so long, and now we get to learn more about Bradman's final years & his friendships with international cricketers . The fact that it's one of only 11 known to exist makes it super rare & valuable - I'm not surprised collectors were willing to shell out top dollar ! What do you guys think about this sale?

I mean, can you believe it? A piece of history just sold for over quarter million pounds! It's insane how much people are willing to pay for these kinds of things. But think about it, this cap is more than just a piece of fabric - it's a link to one of the greatest cricket players of all time. I mean, Don Bradman was a legend on and off the field. And now, we get to see what he wore back in the day. It's like getting a glimpse into his private world. Plus, it'll be amazing to have this cap on display at an Australian museum for everyone to enjoy. It's not just about the money; it's about preserving history and sharing it with the world.

Bradman is literally a legend and to think that someone just paid 232k for his old cap is insane i mean i know its rare and all but £232k is straight up crazy lol what can you even say about it other than WOW anyway im glad its going to some museum in Aus where ppl can see it and learn more about Bradman's final years

Whoa, I'm totally stoked that this iconic baggy green cap sold for such a crazy amount ! 232k is just mind-blowing! Can you even imagine being an Indian cricketer back in the day and getting a gift from Don Bradman himself? That's like, cricket history right there! I wonder who this anonymous buyer is, do they have a sweet collection of vintage cricket gear or something?

I'm still trying to get over this news . 232k?! That's mental! I mean, I knew Bradman was a legend, but wow... so many people must be really into cricket history because someone is willing to pay that kind of cash for it . I guess when you've got something as rare and historic as the "baggy green" cap, prices can just skyrocket . It's cool that an Aussie museum will get to display it now though - it'll be awesome for cricket fans to see it in person .
