Jewish Baseball Museum

[Raoul Duke]

Thanks for all the positive feedback. If you have not already, please signup for the weekly e-mail update on the website. We still want to explore the role of Jews in ownership, labor relations, commissioner, minor leagues, broadcasting and umping. Over the next 6 months the size of the website should double. Please spread the word.

If you could scan the program I would love to display it on the website

This sounds great, I am gonna go and check that out. I have one album in my collection which is cards of Jewish sports athletes, and of course baseball is about 2/3 minimum of that album.

edit: Just did a very brief look at your site, it looks fantastic. Also I just "liked" your Facebook page. Thanks.

What a fantastic resource! Mazel tov!

Who knew that (the other) Jose Bautista came from a kosher family in the Dominican?!

If you decide to branch out into minor leaguers, I have a T209 of Harry Levy (Lynchburg Shoemakers), and I'd be happy to provide a scan. My family were among those Jews in the south (Danville, and in NC) in the early twentieth century, so I always love that card in particular.

Great name, Raoul. Brings back memories of reading Fear and Loathing when it first appeared serialized in Rolling Stone (1971). My friends and I wondered who is this writer Duke, only to later find out it was the good Dr. Thompson.
