Very cool Scott! Is there anything better than baseball memorabilia?

Here's a small sampling from the Wichita Indians. The Tigers figural is of the Detroit Tigers.

Default Literally, a 'minor league baseball' story

I found an old beat-up baseball at my Grandmother's house - turned out to be a ball my Grandfather picked up at a Shreveport minor league game and had signed by at least one player, for my Mom. Well, my Mom promptly dropped it in a pile of black ink, completely obscuring the signatures.

Still, it was a neat piece of family baseball history (the only piece), so I kept it displayed in my glass-topped coffee table case. To my horror, I came home one day to find the dog gnawing the hell out of it. Somehow she had gotten it out of the case - must have been really tasty-looing. She chewed half the cover off. I still have it.

Reminds me of the recent car commercial that features a guy tossing an autographed Honus Wagner ball to his dog, 'Pickles'.

Nope! I'm sure most of us started out collecting cards, but to me collecting baseball memorabilia is what it's all about....

Agreed - baseball players never touched the cards.

Default Ft. Wayne & Harrisonburg

The early Harrisonburg "Turk" player's identity is unknown but being researched at the current front office. The photo is 8" X 10". Thank you Dan and Scott for the complements on the Keokuk stub.

Wonderful stuff (as usual), guys...

A 1927 Kansas City Blues program:



And Columbus newspaper cartoonist Billy Ireland's original art proclaiming the opening of the 1905 American Association season:
