00:00Let's join teammate Rafael Bandairel and sports memorabilia collector Dr. Michael Rico Macina
00:05in their review of the world of Philippine sports.
00:08History, nostalgia, and many more, all here on Treasures of the Game.
00:19Good day teammates and happy viewers to another episode of Treasures of the Game.
00:24I am your host, Rafael Bandairel, and I'm here with our subject matter expert,
00:29Dr. Michael Rico Macina.
00:30Good morning, Raph, and good morning to all our teammates watching this morning
00:36on Treasures of the Game.
00:37Now, Raph, this is our first time having a guest collector here on Treasures of the Game.
00:45Without further ado, Doc, let's introduce our guest.
00:48Who is our guest for today?
00:51So, our guest this morning is one of the up-and-coming jersey collectors
00:56here in the Philippines.
00:57Our teammates, this is Sir Raph Arca.
01:00Sir Raph, good morning.
01:02Good morning, Doc.
01:04Good morning, Sir Raph.
01:05I'm Rafael Arca.
01:06You can call me Raph Arca.
01:08I'm a jersey collector of NBA and PBA, and also a card collector.
01:13We know that Sir Raph is a collector, but of course, it all started as a fan.
01:21So, how did you become a loyal follower of basketball?
01:28Actually, I'm a basketball fan, and then when I was working in a fast food chain,
01:36my first salary was when I bought a jersey.
01:39This is the Grant Hill jersey.
01:42Wow.
01:43Now, Grant Hill is no longer with us.
01:47So, this is my very first basketball jersey.
01:51So, that's a sentimental value, because that's the very first jersey you acquired.
01:56Yes.
01:57How does it feel to be a collector who, after more than two decades,
02:03has also completed your first jersey with an autograph?
02:08I'm very happy.
02:09It's one of my holy grail jersey signs in my collection.
02:15And then, I also have Grant Hill's cards, which are also signed.
02:21Oh, you have them all signed?
02:22Yes.
02:23So, why did you choose Grant Hill as your gateway to join the NBA as a fan?
02:30Actually, Grant Hill is known as a good guy, a nice guy, Mr. Nice Guy, if you want to call him that.
02:39But he's on the team, the Bad Boys team.
02:42So, I was a bit surprised.
02:45He's really good.
02:46He's good.
02:47So, Sir Raph, I also noticed that the jersey you're wearing is a Lakers jersey.
02:52Although, Grant Hill is his idol.
02:55We can see that it's all decked out in Lakers gear.
02:58This is Sir Raph.
02:59So, Raph, given that trade, what do you think is the effect of jersey collecting here in the Philippines?
03:06Maybe, for Luka, if it's in the Lakers, it will increase in value.
03:14But, in the Mavs, I can't say.
03:17As of now, we can see it on social media.
03:21Some people burn it, others throw it away.
03:24We can't say.
03:25But, for me, as a collector, it will increase.
03:29Because he's a rookie now.
03:31That's where he came from.
03:32That's where he got his name.
03:33What is the reaction of a Lakers fan to the trade of Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis?
03:39It's a mix of emotions.
03:41As a Lakers fan, it's really sad that Anthony Davis is gone.
03:46So, moving ahead, what are the special jerseys in your collection, Sir Raph?
03:51The second one in my holy grail of jerseys is this.
03:54Dirk Nowitzki.
03:56It's a sign also, Las FIBA.
03:59So, that's the chance for a Filipino who can't go to other countries.
04:05So, I grabbed the opportunity of FIBA.
04:08So, I went to our idols.
04:11I signed with Dirk, who's one of the kindest.
04:14He's also kind.
04:15Yeah, super, super, super kind.
04:17Sir, I have a question.
04:19Because this is one of the important things in your collection,
04:23what is the special connection of Dirk Nowitzki to you?
04:28His way of accepting fans here in the Philippines is different.
04:33As a superstar, NBA superstar,
04:37I can't say that he's good.
04:41He's so kind.
04:42He arranged a line for all the fans
04:45so that he can give, even if he'll be late for the FIBA raffle.
04:51Even if he'll be late.
04:52Wow.
04:53He arranged a line for all the fans
04:55so that he can give, even if he'll be late for the FIBA raffle.
04:58That's how good and kind he is.
05:00So, your advice, Raf,
05:02to those who have jerseys of Luka Doncic
05:06Dallas.
05:07Don't dispose them.
05:08Put them aside.
05:09Put them aside.
05:10That's a waste.
05:11And we can't say that
05:13it's still valuable when the time comes.
05:16If they really don't want it,
05:17just give it to us, right?
05:19Yes, let's go to the leisure center.
05:22So that we can add to our collection.
05:24Yes, we can.
05:25Anyway, sir Raf,
05:27let's move to another jersey
05:29that you want to highlight from your collection.
05:31This is also a Dwight Howard jersey.
05:36It's an Orlando Magic jersey.
05:39Dual sign.
05:41It's signed on the front.
05:42It's also signed on the back.
05:45It's also one of the kindest,
05:47very accommodating players,
05:50superstar NBA player.
05:51He gave everything.
05:53But this one,
05:54he put a lot of effort into it.
05:56I was able to sign his second jersey on the front.
05:59We were in Valenzuela at the time.
06:03He was a guest in the Valenzuela court.
06:07Everything was in the court.
06:08He was able to take a picture.
06:10He was able to sign an autograph.
06:12Doc, as a collector,
06:14we can see everywhere
06:17where our NBA players go.
06:20It's also there.
06:21So if there are collectors like you, sir Raf,
06:24who want to copy what you do,
06:26how do you hunt these players?
06:28Actually, we have a GC of auto chasers.
06:32That's what we call our GC.
06:34Hi, auto chasers.
06:35Shout out.
06:36We give them information
06:39on where they can see,
06:42where they can go,
06:43when they will come,
06:45who will come.
06:47That's where we give that information.
06:51You also need a lot of patience.
06:55Because when you go there,
06:57it's not just signing
06:59or taking a picture.
07:01The longest I waited
07:04was Dirk Nowitzki.
07:06I arrived at 9am.
07:09He went down at 6pm.
07:11At that time,
07:12I didn't go to the bathroom.
07:14I didn't eat.
07:16Just water.
07:17Because anytime,
07:18he can go to the bathroom.
07:19That's what you need.
07:20Because if you eat,
07:22you might go down.
07:24If you go to the bathroom,
07:25you might go out.
07:27So that's what we need to give time.
07:34Raf, I see that
07:37Raf showed us some jerseys.
07:40There are jerseys
07:42that have patches.
07:45Others have a flat surface.
07:50For those who are just starting
07:53to collect jerseys
07:55or want to learn about
07:57different kinds of jerseys,
07:58can you give us
08:00a quick rundown
08:02of the different kinds of jerseys
08:04that we often encounter
08:06when collecting?
08:08This Dirk Nowitzki,
08:10this is called
08:12Authentic Type.
08:14This is the Authentic Type.
08:16This is the Swingman.
08:18Authentic.
08:19Authentic.
08:20Swingman.
08:21The difference between them
08:22is that Authentic Type
08:24has a similar material
08:26to Game Worn.
08:27It's the same type.
08:29Game Worn or Game Issued.
08:31That's what the player
08:33wears in the game.
08:35This Authentic Type
08:36has almost the same material
08:38as what they wear.
08:40The Swingman
08:42is the affordable
08:44type of jersey.
08:46This is the Replica Type
08:48jersey.
08:50This is the
08:52most affordable type
08:54of jersey in the market.
08:56So very quick sir,
08:58let's rank the most
09:00valuable in the world of collecting.
09:02The most valuable
09:04to the lowest value.
09:06The most valuable is
09:08Game Use or Game Worn.
09:11This is what the player wears.
09:13Next is the Authentic Type.
09:15This is the same type
09:17as Game Worn.
09:19Next is the Swingman.
09:21This is the Replica Type.
09:23There's also the Custom.
09:25Custom means
09:27what you made.
09:29Like now,
09:31we can't buy
09:33the old
09:35jerseys anymore.
09:37Although
09:39Sir Rapp is mainly
09:41a jersey collector,
09:43his Holy Grail is not a jersey.
09:45So what is this?
09:47Actually, Rapp showed this to me
09:49earlier when we were talking.
09:51So Sir Rapp,
09:53let's show this to our teammates.
09:55Actually,
09:57this is my Holy Grail.
09:59It's a sign of Kobe.
10:01It's from Beckett
10:03Magazine.
10:05I'm not claiming
10:07that this is a legit sign.
10:09But I
10:11am not
10:13a witness
10:15of him signing this.
10:17He went to the Philippines
10:19in 1998
10:21for a basketball clinic
10:23for a basketball shoe.
10:25Then I went there
10:27and there was a staff
10:29of that brand.
10:31He asked me if I wanted him to sign this.
10:33So I did.
10:35Then after 30 minutes
10:37or 1 hour,
10:39the staff approached me and asked
10:41if this is for me.
10:43Then he
10:45turned around and said
10:47yes, this is for me.
10:49So I opened it and there's a Kobe sign.
10:51I think
10:53this is the first
10:55Kobe sign.
10:57But I'm not sure.
10:59I'm not claiming that this is a legit sign.
11:01I don't think anyone would sign this
11:03to fool a kid.
11:05Why would you force
11:07someone to sign this?
11:09But this is a staff of that brand.
11:11So this has a
11:13picture, right?
11:15Yes.
11:17This is the picture
11:19of the film.
11:21We haven't digitalized
11:23it yet.
11:25This is the picture.
11:27Actually, there are a lot of pictures.
11:29This is just one of them.
