All--
I hope it's not OT to inquire if there are any baseball stamp/cover collectors in the Net54 world? I don't see many threads/BST offerings and wonder if anyone else is philatelically inclined? Thanks, Mike

Here's a piece that took me years to assemble in the 80's & 90's
The FDC commemorates the 100th anniversary of baseball in 1939 and all who signed it were playing in '39 except Hoyt who retired a year earlier. Its now in my sons collection w/ instructions to pass it to his son, who's 2 now when he can appreciate it. Perhaps in 2039 ![]() Last edited by Jay Wolt; 04-07-2014 at 10:00 PM. |

Amazing piece, Jay. The FDC was produced by the Knickerbocker Stamp Club in Cooperstown. Thanks for sharing it, and making it a legacy piece for your family!
Cheers, Mike

Yes, I have a few baseball related stamps/covers. Nothing quite like Jays cover though.
I pick up what I can find reasonably. And that depends on my mood. Normal first day covers at stamp shows can be really cheap, and sometimes the dealers don't organize them at all. The ones that do organize usually want realistic prices. Baseball is a popular topic to collect. I also collect stamps/covers from other sports, and stamps in general. Mostly US, Germany and eastern Europe. I'm really into the US official mail stamps from the 1870's. Steve B |

I've shown this before, but happy to re-post to this thread as it is still one of my favorite pickups from last year.

Hi Mike,
I once had a large collection of over 40 Baseball Centennial 855 First Day Covers. Here are a couple of my favorites that I still own. Patrick |
