The Sports Museum of America will be “a must see” stop for fans and collectors all over the country (and the world). Located in the heart of Wall Street, within a two block walk of the former World Trade Center site, the museum contains a fabulous array of interactive exhibits and memorabilia for twenty plus different sports.
The baseball section has a number of wonderful items from the Stephen Wong collection as well as some cool items on loan from the Hall of Fame, Jackie Robinson’s family collection, the Bill Mastro collection and the Yogi Berra Museum. There were only a few baseball cards on exhibit but a number of important tickets, programs, photographs and uniforms.
The movie and videos that have been created for this for profit museum were world class , indeed. The museum opens to the public on Wednesday, May 7, 2008. For more details visit the web site at

Enjoy your visit
