living in Louisville, the Louisville Slugger Museum gets a TON of traffic. All the hotels (which is my profession) advertise for it, have discounted passes and its on the trolley route. As an advocate for the hobby, this is a great avenue to attempt to reunite the game with hobby.
Matty--thank you so much for allowing this piece of history to be on display in our great city! Now...I just hope the river doesn't flood the museum as it's 20 feet above flood stage!!

Matty C - extremely cool. Great card and I appreciate your willingness to share with the world. You truly are an ambassador for our (sometimes maddening) hobby.

Good vibes all around. Here's a nice professional-looking one taken by someone at the Museum...

Did you buy that card in the Goodwin auction last year?

Yes, that was the auction. Thanks so much for the PM and that "Apple Pie" history on the card! It's a heart warming history and all a collector could hope for; it makes what is already a cherished treasure all the more special. Such provenance in this day and age of so many sales is rare, and it's great to see the card's charmed history continues with that museum inclusion, the TV spot, and the smiles it brought and brings! Thanks so much for reaching out.
