In the mid 1990's I befriended one time Orioles coach Jimmy (not to be confused with Jimy) Williams.

He coached for them from 1981 thru 1987, and when Earl Weaver retired for the second time after the '86 season he gave Jimmy his metal box of hand written scouting reports (on 4x6 index cards) of every opposing player for future reference.

Jimmy was kind enough to gift it to me and I later had Earl sign it:
