Show Something That Could Be in the Baseball Hall of Fame

Ok...hope I'm not boring anyone.

This official document dated March 17, 1969 formalizes the trade of Orlando Cepeda for Joe Torre. In the St. Patrick�s Day swap, the Braves gained Cepeda who two years earlier was the National League�s Most Valuable Player. The Cardinals in return gained Torre who two years later would win an MVP of his own. The bottom of the document is signed by Hall of Fame candidate, GM Bing Devine.

This document and the other pieces in previous posts are all on CooperstownExpert.com. Have to tell you, sometimes I get fired up about collecting...and every so often I have a moment of clarity and think about getting rid of everything and paying off the bills.

Thanks for looking!

Here are a couple of documents calling up players to make their big league debut. On the left is that of Jim Rice dated the day of his debut. The other one is for Dick Allen who had to wait eight more days past the day the document was executed. Both are featured on the website CooperstownExpert.com. If you click on the player names, it'll take you directly to their pages on the site.
