Posted By: <b>Clint</b><p>What do you consider your area or areas of expertise. Is it bats, photos, trophies, pennants or whatever. Obviously this probably relates to what you collect as well.<br /><br />I would say mine are Kansas baseball, bats and photographs or postcards.<br /><img src="http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z186/ksfarmboy/S5000056.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1179107142.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Mike</b><p>The term "expert" is a nebulous term. Even doctors and dentists call their business their "practice". So I guess we all practice our crafts, and keep on learning. I like to think i am some what knowledgable in news and wire photos. I have been collecting originals for many years. I think it is one of the last aspects of sports collectables ,to be gone after, and is still very very reasonable. To me, coming across a pre war photo, of a hall of famer, that no one else has, or hardly any one has ever seen is very cool. A peek into the past. A brief snapshot of a players career, or life. I find that fascinating.

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>in postcards... but would not call myself an expert by any means.<br />somewhere between a novice and an expert -- probably right in the middle of that.<br /><br /><br />If I had to call myself an expert in anything it would be printing in general. <br /><br />But everything is relative... and there is always someone with more knowledge than I have, or someone who has a piece of knowledge that I do not have. Always learning, every day - from everything and everyone.

Posted By: <b>Clint</b><p>That's what I love about memorabilia guys, modesty. Except Greg, he keeps picking on my poor Orioles.<img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> You guys got my drift though. I was just looking for what area or areas your most knowledgeable in. I think it's true were always learning something new.<br /><br />Clint

Posted By: <b>Greg Theberge</b><p>Sorry Clint, Don't mean to pick on the Birds. I actually love the Birds, they're my second favorite team. I wish we got your shortstop last year. Had the pleasure going down to Maryland for a series in 05. Had a great time, great city! Yesterday, though, was a great day to be a Sox fan.<br /><br />all the best,<br />Greg

Posted By: <b>ramram</b><p>To some extent, pre 1900 images. More so with dags, ambros and tintypes and to a lesser bit albumens, cabinet cards and cdvs. I also feel pretty comfortable with early manuscript material as far as ink, writing style and paper goes (although this doesn't help much in the world of baseball collectibles).<br /><br />Rob M.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Mine would be in pre-1870 baseball artifacts. The earlier they are, the more my curiosity is piqued. I try to keep a comprehensive research library for these early pieces.<br /><br />And a "muffin" is a term for a ballplayer with very limited skills. He's the one who would circle under a flyball and end up getting hit on the head with it.

If you load them to your own photo service, you can simply cut and paste the URL of the photo into your message text, making sure you include the http:// part of the address.<br /><br />Max
