Not very old. May 31, 1950. Baseball from an exhibition game between Post Cereal and the Brooklyn Dodgers. It’s as old as I got. Jackie Robinson played in the game.

The color 1894 schedule is just incredible. Well, all the items are, but that schedule has the elusive "wow factor".

This just went from a forgotten about for-sale pile to my collection. It happens frequently. Collector bug and all...
I always like how they repurposed things back in the day...

Nice one Ryan!

Anything from the 1860s is really old...

The table I use to sort cards was made in 1830.

My hunch is that it wasn’t made for that purpose.

I wonder who made this baseball? I wonder who played with it?
