 Auburn Vault Book ( bsettoon )
The Vault books are well done. I have the LSU one and gave the Auburn one as a gift. They have a good history of the football program from it's earliest days with lots of photographs of teams, the stadium through its stages of growth, coaches, etc. A unique aspect is they have inserts which are replicas of old team rosters, training schedules, bowl games tickets, etc. which is a touch I've never seen before. Both were written by a local authority on the program.

I Bleed Orange & Blue
My husband and I are die-hard Auburn fans and I always give him some sort of Auburn gift for Christmas but how many T-shirts, caps & mugs can one person have? This past Christmas in search of something really different I bought the AUBURN VAULT book and IT WAS OUTSTANDING!!!!! My son and I spent about 2 hours looking at it when I brought it home - all the while watching the front door for any signs of my husband. We could hardly tear ourselves away from it to wrap it. MY HUSBAND ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT!! We look at it all the time remembering past games and experiences. A MUST HAVE FOR ANY AUBURN FAN!!

Best Book I ever gave a client
Sharing the status of Auburn Alumni with a favorite client, i thought this book would be a perfect Christmas gift for him. Not only did he absolutely love it, but i received a letter from his wife telling me it was his prized Christmas gift of '07. She said he kept it on the table by his chair and jumped at the chance to share it with anyone who came through the door. It is truly a vault of the best memorabilia. There are old rally caps, football tickets and footage from some of the great players and coaches that's completely unseen or heard before David Housel eloquent account of the history of Auburn Football. No matter the age of the fan, this book is truly a prized possession.

The most exciting gift giving ever!
I bought this book for my dad who is so hard to buy gifts for. He's usually pleased with something from Auburn (t-shirts, etc) and I happened upon this and ordered it not knowing what it was. It came yesterday and I am so very HAPPY and excited to give this to my dad, the biggest Auburn fan ever! This book is amazing with all ticket replicas and bumper stickers. I can not wait until he opens this on Christmas. It is well worth the $40.00 and I am extremely surprised it doesn't cost more. Get this book if you have an Auburn fan in your life! You will be their BFF :)
