I'm another publications collector who is disappointed (but not surprised) at the demise of programs, yearbooks etc. Like the OP I have a run of Orioles publications going back to 1954. The announcement a few years back that they were discontinuing printed media guides really stung. My guide/yearbook collection means more to me than anything else I have. I recall phoning the team back in the 60s and 70s and getting a price list along with some fun 'junk' in the mail. Receiving my yearbooks and postcard set in the mail was a big deal for me.

The Orioles are not alone by any means. I also collected Houston Texans (now dead to me), University of Houston and NY Rangers publications and they have dropped printed guides and yearbooks. It's the way of the world I guess.
