Proust did not have any psychological background, and worked primarily as a writer.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nProust viewed involuntary memory as containing the "essence of the past," claiming that it was lacking from voluntary memory. When the protagonist of Proust\'s novel eats a tea soaked madeleine, a long-forgotten childhood memory of eating tea soaked madeleine with his aunt is restored to him.[2] From this memory, he then proceeds to recall the childhood home he was in, and even the town itself. This becomes a theme throughout In Search of Lost Time, with sensations reminding the narrator of previous experiences. Proust dubbed these "involuntary memories"."\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=2517587" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 2517587 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_2517587_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">dbussell12</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=1032508">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=1032508" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by dbussell12</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 2517587 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #2517587 -' + '->';

I 100% agree. This is why I don\'t care so much about \'who\' is on old cards strictly speaking and look more for printer marks, wear, or other distinguishing signatures that speak to that kind of accumulated history you\'re talking about.<br />\n<br />\nOne of my favorite cards is a T206 Addie Joss with tape marks and a ton of creases but is deeply, deeply worn. It almost looks like an entirely different card but it glows with a different aura than anything else. Can\'t be replicated, precisely because it acquired another density as an artifact through time an engagement. And of course Joss\' impact on baseball history can\'t be overstated. Addie Joss day is one of the most important events in baseball history IMO.<br />\n<br />\nThere are multiple ways to look at cards or other aspects of baseball history; it sounds to me like we look at them similarly. As historical artifacts; something that remains from a time long gone. It\'s easy sometimes to get distracted by images and forget the multidimensional backgrounds like you are discussing.<br />\n<br />\nThanks for sharing this insight!!

Walking through a store and seeing an advertisement for star cals for example would be the coolest thing to me. Advertising in particular from the 50s is nostalgic to me even never having experienced it. <br />\n<br />\nSimilarly the roaring 20s give me the same second hand nostalgia feeling. I love the architecture and flashy lights, monster movies. This snapshot of Wajo from his 1924 scrapbook is the best I can show this. <br />\n<br />\nAnother that really interests me is Worlds Fairs. Chicago 1893 in particular, but also New York 1939/1964. For this example I\'m showing my 1939 centennial paper logo with the original envelope given out at the 1939 new York world fair by Oppenheim Collins.

Walking through a store and seeing an advertisement for star cals for example would be the coolest thing to me. Advertising in particular from the 50s is nostalgic to me even never having experienced it. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nSimilarly the roaring 20s give me the same second hand nostalgia feeling. I love the architecture and flashy lights, monster movies. This snapshot of Wajo from his 1924 scrapbook is the best I can show this. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nAnother that really interests me is Worlds Fairs. Chicago 1893 in particular, but also New York 1939/1964.

Also showed tons of quacks and the like that I would\'ve loved to see. Products that don\'t exist but for that time frame. Everything about them would\'ve been grandiose, like a victorian millionaires wedding is how I imagine the setting in Chicago. Every corner you turn something weird and cool. I\'m sure food from around the world and exhibits of some strange animals and the like. The original Ferris wheel. <br />\n<br />\nI love this photo of the 1893 Chicago fair. Fountains, huge buildings. Catwalks to look down on everything. A photo I can almost hear.<br />\nNot to mention the story of H.H Holmes. Who likely used the fair for numerous killings. Obviously not a good thing, but adds to the mystique that much more. <br />\n<br />\n27 million people visited the Chicago worlds fair for the 6 months it operated. That is an unimaginable number for the time.

I was 11 years old and had recently been released from the hospital after having my 5th foot and leg surgery in that short timeand at my favorite place. Busch Stadium! I can still remember the feeling of anticipation, the sun on my face, and the sounds of the ball park. The smell of the hotdogs and bark of the memorabilia vendors. And then the disappointment of seeing kids lined up at the railing getting autographs of their favorite players, realizing with my legs in casts I couldn&#8217;t get there to get my ball signed that i brought. I was just happy to be there seeing my favorite team. I asked my dad &#8220;can we get down there to get autographs?&#8221; And my dad tryied to explain to me that he probably wouldn&#8217;t have much luck getting their attention with all the kids there&#8221; and how it&#8217;d be too hard to get my wheelchair down.  A few minutes later An usher in a fancy red uniform tapped me on the shoulder and held out an official game ball with the entire teams signatures, and they were all real, in different pen colors. He had overheard our conversation and took it upon himself to get ahold of someone in the dugout and soon they brought the ball to him to give to me!

I was 11 years old and had recently been released from the hospital after having my 5th foot and leg surgery in that short timeand at my favorite place. Busch Stadium! I can still remember the feeling of anticipation, the sun on my face, and the sounds of the ball park. The smell of the hotdogs and bark of the memorabilia vendors. And then the disappointment of seeing kids lined up at the railing getting autographs of their favorite players, realizing with my legs in casts I couldn’t get there to get my ball signed that i brought. I was just happy to be there seeing my favorite team. I asked my dad “can we get down there to get autographs?” And my dad tryied to explain to me that he probably wouldn’t have much luck getting their attention with all the kids there” and how it’d be too hard to get my wheelchair down.  A few minutes later An usher in a fancy red uniform tapped me on the shoulder and held out an official game ball with the entire teams signatures, and they were all real, in different pen colors. He had overheard our conversation and took it upon himself to get ahold of someone in the dugout and soon they brought the ball to him to give to me!

It was a great time to be young and a Giant fan. For one more year anyway. However, instead of traveling down that particular memory lane I will present this autographed 1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig as an artifact that evokes history. At some moment between 1934 and the time he lost his motor skills Lou Gehrig, living and breathing, held this very baseball card in his hand and affixed his signature in all its cursive glory.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nI have a yearning nostalgia for the era between the two world wars. It\'s when my father was in his youth. The world he lived in was colorful and exciting - terrific music, fancy women, great athletes. Never mind that he grew up in San Francisco, 1000 miles west of major league baseball. It still had that jazz age gestalt that Gehrig\'s autograph evokes for me.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/baseball/holygrailcards/websize/qu34%20Goudey%20Gehrig%20_autographed-pen_.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nFancy Women<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/mischidden/miscellany2/websize/ex%20Nine%20Lucky%20Girls%201931.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nTerrific Music<br />\r\nThis YouTube - Manhattan by the California Ramblers - is a sweet jazz melody with great visuals, even with the "jitters".

They won the PCL by eight games and were 120-71. I possess the glass negative from which this photo was printed. [Come to think of it, the neg itself would be a separate cool artifact by the terms of this writing assignment. Wish I had a  pik of it. That piece of glass was looking right at those guys, its architecture re-arranged by light rays bouncing off them. Spooky stuff. Too much marijuana in my youth].

It was a great time to be young and a Giant fan. For one more year anyway. However, instead of traveling down that particular memory lane I will present this autographed 1934 Goudey Lou Gehrig as an artifact that evokes history. At some moment between 1934 and the time he lost his motor skills Lou Gehrig, living and breathing, held this very baseball card in his hand and affixed his signature in all its cursive glory.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nI have a yearning nostalgia for the era between the two world wars. It\'s when my father was in his youth. The world he lived in was colorful and exciting - terrific music, fancy women, great athletes. Never mind that he grew up in San Francisco, 1000 miles west of major league baseball. It still had that jazz age gestalt that Gehrig\'s autograph evokes for me.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/baseball/holygrailcards/websize/qu34%20Goudey%20Gehrig%20_autographed-pen_.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nFancy Women<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/mischidden/miscellany2/websize/ex%20Nine%20Lucky%20Girls%201931.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nTerrific Music<br />\r\nThis YouTube - Manhattan by the California Ramblers - is a sweet jazz melody with great visuals, even with the "jitters".

They won the PCL by eight games and were 120-71. I possess the glass negative from which this photo was printed. [Come to think of it, the neg itself would be a separate cool artifact by the terms of this writing assignment. Wish I had a  pik of it. That piece of glass was looking right at those guys, its architecture re-arranged by light rays bouncing off them. Spooky stuff. Too much marijuana in my youth]. Frankie Crosetti is 18 years old here. Thirty years later we see him again via home movie camera waving Norm Siebern home on an inside-the-parker. <br />\r\n<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/mischidden/miscellany2/large/8%201928%20SF%20Seals_1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/family/familymoviescreencaps/websize/Snapshot%202009-07-23%2023-51-35.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nMy Dad was born at home in a house one short block away from this Mission District street in 1920. He was an altar boy at St Peter\'s church whose corner and steps are at left. He delivered the San Francisco Chronicle to pitch in with expenses. Some of his customers were Civil war veterans. Imagine that. He saw Henry Oana play.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/mischidden/miscellany2/large/Florida%20Street%20Between%2024th%20and%2025th%20Streets_%20San%20Francisco%20_1914_.jpeg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<img src="https://photos.imageevent.com/kawika_o_ka_pakipika/sportscardsetc/mischidden/recentpickups/websize/33ZN%20Oana%20_coupon_.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />\r\n<br />\r\nHe attended St Ignatius HS which is by the athletic field to the left of SI Cathedral.

I think there\'s a profound thread here, how tangible materials are portals back in time to places we can reach in our minds; spaces we inhabit with mixtures of personal, ancestral, and collective memories. Much of this recall in my experience is a fusion between storytelling, myth, and how history is passed down and shifts and changes through time aurally and in how we process time through time.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nWe, of course, are living in time; these objects and materials live in time with us. The Willie Mays glove, the ball you got with your father as a child -' + '- these things acquire deeper power as time goes on because they become mingled with what was and what will never be again, but still is as embodied through the object itself and the memory you retain of it.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nAnything Satchel Paige to me is the peak or height of this kind of thing when it comes to baseball history. Satchel himself represents to me the absolute epitome of how baseball functions as story and storytelling. He is one of those figures who seems to himself rise above baseball and tell us something more profound about our humanity and what it is to be human through baseball; his life and times.

We saw the first moon landing, A little music festival in Woodstock, New York, the Vietnam war was still raging and the Bums in Wrigley’s bleachers were signing Hey Hey, Holy Mackeral because the Chicago Cubs were making a legitimate run for the National League pennant.  All over Chicagoland the lowly north siders began to steal the hearts of baseball fans with their winning ways and Cub Power was sweeping the land.  Little did those fans know at the time that Cub Power would be timeless, but their team was not as the Cubs once again failed to appear in the post-season and would not do so for several more seasons. <br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nIt was during this summer that my Aunt Bertha, who lived just beyond the Chicago city limits and who was well aware of my 6 year old fanaticism for all things baseball gave me a gift that I would never take off until it literally fell off of my back. It was on one of her semi-monthly trips to “the country”  when she casually handed me a bag that contained a t-shirt, but not just any t-shirt, but one in which had the logo emblazoned on the front that I began to see all over television. With the words “Cub Power” printed in the traditional blue and red of the north side baseball team, I stood in awe as I hurriedly stripped the shirt I had on and replaced it with my gift from my now favorite Aunt.  I wore that t-shirt until it became a dingy gray color and the logo slowly peeled off from too many times in the wash cycle but whenever I see that logo I am immediately transported back to a time in which summer meant baseball and watching the Cubs on WGN was must see TV.  <br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nA few years ago, my cousin came upon this  picture of myself, my sister and brother appearing to do some sort of yard work for my grandmother who appeared in the background.  As I stared at this picture I was transported back to simpler time, a time where the realities of life had not reared its ugly head and changed our lives forever.  Just four years after this picture was taken, my sister would have a diving accident that would land her in a wheelchair for the remainder of her life. The accident changed our family in so many ways but the fascination with the north side Cubbies remained in all of us.  Cub Power may have died out when the 1969 season ended in failure, but the love for the team and more importantly, for the game of baseball itself continued and even provided a welcome distraction when life tried to steal our joy.  Cub power continues in our hearts and in our minds and still brings me that excitement that it did when that t-shirt was first slipped over my six year old head so many decades ago. <br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nNow, does anyone know where I can get a size 5X Tall Cub Power t-shirt?<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<a href="http://www.net54baseball.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=662121&amp;d=1748141419"  title="Name:  480927065_10236624764189249_3896093987554010145_n.jpg\r\nViews: 255\r\nSize:  58.0 KB">480927065_10236624764189249_3896093987554010145_n.jpg</a>\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- attachments -' + '->\r\n			<div style="padding:6px">\r\n\r\n			\r\n\r\n			\r\n\r\n			\r\n\r\n			\r\n\r\n			\r\n\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / attachments -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=2517922" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 2517922 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_2517922_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">whitehse</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=159">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=159" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to whitehse</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=159" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by whitehse</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 2517922 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #2517922 -' + '->';

The older I get the more I reach into the past. You are much more articulate and analytical about the anthropological matters of collective memories, story telling, myth-making and the like. I couldn\'t have written what you wrote but I appreciate your insights.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nNever had any aspirations to be a writer. There are certain things I would like to get down on paper for the benefit of my nieces and nephews related to our family\'s story, and I want to write up some biographical info about my wife who has lived a tough, interesting and honorable life. She has fifty-one - count \'em - first cousins and someday there will be a gazillion young Vander Kooys whom I want to remember her.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nHave been posting on this board for over twenty years. Most of what I have written is more terse and less whimsical than the post we\'re discussing. I get a kick out of the English language. You can paint with words and express things in all sorts of ways. It pleases me to come up with a well-turned phrase. The next step is a paragraph and beyond that are pages, articles, books. Anything beyond a paragraph takes disciplined and dedicated effort. I\'m too hyper for that. I wish to un-convince you of the possibility of me writing the ultimate baseball book. Wouldn\'t even know where to start. All the same, thanks for the complimentary words.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\nWhen i acquired the glass slide about fifteen years back I attempted to ID each of the players. Probably named two-thirds of them and put the project aside and there it has sat. I thought the man in the sweater was manager Nick Williams but was corrected by Dave Eskenazi that TS Eliot was the trainer and Williams is to his right.</div>\r\n			\r\n		</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	</table>\r\n</div><br />\r\n<br />\r\nYou have a wonderful perspective David, I want to let you know it gives me great joy to read your posts!

			I love the 1950s aesthetic. Walking through a store and seeing an advertisement for star cals for example would be the coolest thing to me. Advertising in particular from the 50s is nostalgic to me even never having experienced it. <br />
<br />
Similarly the roaring 20s give me the same second hand nostalgia feeling. I love the architecture and flashy lights, monster movies. This snapshot of Wajo from his 1924 scrapbook is the best I can show this. <br />
<br />
Another that really interests me is Worlds Fairs. Chicago 1893 in particular, but also New York 1939/1964. For this example I'm showing my 1939 centennial paper logo with the original envelope given out at the 1939 new York world fair by Oppenheim Collins. A womens clothier. <br />
