Tom Holster, the author, is (or was?) a DC area collector - I believe he produced this book mostly as a "labor of love," as I don't believe he sold very many copies of it. A few years ago, I think someone told me that Holster had left the hobby. It's a great pub for anyone who collects Wash. Senators cards!

Nice! I could use a resource like this to come up with a want list for my Senators/Twins type collection. I'll have to see if this or something similar is available. Otherwise, I just have fun reading various threads about different sets, look for a Senator (1901-1960) or Twin (1961-1991), hunt for an example and then add it to my inventory sheet. I've got the T205 and T213 already shown here, so unfortunately I don't have another image to share.
