Default Bob Lemke was a good man

Add me to the list of Bob Lemke admirers. I shared a lot of information with him on un-cataloged oddball baseball issues. He was always receptive. The Charlie Peete avatar I use is my tribute to him.

Thanks for posting. Hard to believe it has been five years already.

Bob sent me this same exact card just out of the blue as I was collecting Nebraska minor league cards and memorabilia at the time and Peete was a batting champion with the Omaha Cardinals. He was the nicest guy this hobby has ever seen. RIP Bob.

Bob was a great person and took the hobby to new heights. I wish I could find old archives of his articles in the weekly SCD papers from the 90s. I don’t think they exist. Enjoyed many conversations with him and he was the main reason I started collecting 19th century baseball currencies..

Thanks for posting the pod cast

Bob really knew so much about vintage. It was great when he did the big book as he would put verified nuances in there... I am not sure there is any book as all inclusive, for vintage, than his 2010s ones., They were huge!

One thing T.S. pointed out was Bob got just as much pleasure of knowing the new stuff as he did pre-war. Trust me when I say this, Bob kicked butt on all cataloguing old and new

I also sent this thread to Dr. Beckett to read and see who commented and he was very pleased at the engagement and the knowledge of the people who have posted in this thread. It's nice to see good things in this hobby.

I emailed with Bob a number of times adding cards to various checklists. I spent an afternoon with him at the old Richmond Tuff Stuff Show reviewing my W590 set which expanded the checklist and was the inspiration for one of his SCD articles, which I happen to have found this weekend cleaning my basement.
