Stumped in your search for a unique gift for someone you love? Don’t want to travel to shop or give Jeff Bezos more money? redbankgreen is here to help with our seasonal feature highlighting gift suggestions from Red Bank shops and businesses.
We find ’em the old-fashioned way: walking into local shops searching for stuff that’s quintessentially Red Bank or just plain unique and fun to give or get. We’ll be popping in here again and again in the weeks leading up to Christmas to show you our finds. Here’s today’s find – and click here if you want to see the previous gift ideas.
What: 1954 Phil Rizzuto baseball card
Where: Monmouth Stamp and Coin Shop, 39 Monmouth Street
Why? Holy Cow! What Yankees fan wouldn’t be thrilled to wake up Christmas morning to find the Scooter in their stocking? Also, roaming the aisles of the Monmouth Stamp and Coin Shoppe is the perfect antidote to the cold, impersonal shopping mall/online shopping experience holiday shopping has become.
How much? $100 (or choose from thousands of cards and coins at different price ranges)
