No, the signs were the same image as the the image on the box in the images I posted above.

I'm just trying to get a fix on the known universe of Tuxedo pieces, excluding the magazine ads. Here's what I think is out there, please correct:
1) Boxes: Matty and Gowdy
2) Horizontal broadsides: Matty, Walter, McGraw.
3) Vertical signs: Gowdy.

The only change that I would add is to the vertical sign is that there is a Christy Mathewson as well.

Thanks. It seems to me likely that they made boxes with Walter and maybe McGraw, too, but none have surfaced. What's your guess?

And here's some odd trivia about these four subjects: three of them: Johnson, Gowdy, and McGraw, were in the 1924 World Series many years later, and Matty was in the press box covering the series for a syndicate.

Default Finally complete!

Hi all, I've looked on with admiration at the rooms on this post over the last number of years. While my collection pales in comparison to the quality I've seen out of many of our members, I've been able to finally at least move mine out of spare rooms and storage closets. I completed the renovation of the shed behind our house this weekend, which was a major project as my brother and I did all the flooring, ceiling, and woodwork ourselves. While I've barely had a chance to get much on the shelves, I look forward to many years of filling it up!

Ryan,

That's a shed?!
That is the greatest shed in the history of sheds!

I love all that you've done, especially the ceiling. The displays look amazing too, we might need to see a few closeups.

Well done!

Damn, I have a lawn mower and some grass seed in my shed. Ryan, that is absolutely the most kick-ass shed of all time. Well done.

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the kind words.

I'm very fortunate, my grandfather built the shed for my grandma back in the early 90s for all her auction buys, so I had the benefit of working from its bones. I included some before pictures below. Unfortunately 12 years of sitting empty before my wife and I moved in meant it needed a new furnace, air conditioning, insulation, doors & windows, etc., but it was a fun vision to execute.

I posted a picture of the finished outside as well. Total building is 32x40, with the baseball room being about 30x32. The small room in the back I dedicated to some military history so I can share that with some of the high school kids I teach. I'll include some pictures of that also for any history folks on here.

As for the bar, Rob... I do have a two-tap kegerator in the barn next door with a bar, but the best I can do in here is keep the old coke cooler in the storage room stocked!

You are going to easily win the award for best shed. Unbelievable! I can’t imagine having that much space for stuff. Congratulations.

That looks more like a guest cottage than a shed. Very impressive. Great job having multiple interests like that. I used to collect Civil War ephemera and give lectures so I know how important visuals are.

I'm always humbled when I see pictures of sheds that are bigger and nicer than my entire house!

Very nice stuff.

Thanks a ton guys, I really appreciate it. I thank grandpa every day for building that shed, though I'm sure he didn't know he was building it for me at the time! As an avid baseball fan and gun collector, I think he'd enjoy what it has become if he could see it now.

In the 10 years that I've been collecting HOF and vintage baseball, I've relied heavily on this forum. I have been awed time and again with the level of knowledge and expertise of our members, so I look forward to continuing to learn from you veteran collectors as I track down items worthy of the space! Thanks again!

Don't forget to thank your grandma, who must have had quite a habit of buying items at auction! Without her, there would be no shed.

I know this was originally posted over six months ago, but I am catching up on this thread. I think this is my favorite room/display. It is so awesome, so overwhelming, I can't even put my finger on exactly what "it" is, but...well...just incredible. It looks like the kind of place I would want to be. Are any of those boxes empty and simply display, or are they all full of unopened material? Thanks for sharing this.

So I have a question. It is about binders in which folks put 9 pocket sheets with cards. I see them on shelves sitting on end. How does one do this without the pages sagging/drooping down, thus causing damage to some cards?

I am beginning work on my cave and hope to be able to begin to start matching some of the awesome displays I am seeing here. They are quite impressive. Thanks for sharing.

I don’t think it’s anything to worry about.

Default NFL HOF QB Room

I know we're probably supposed to be talking baseball, but thought since football is coming soon I'd share my football room.

This room is dedicated to NFL HOF QB's, but I do have some memorabilia of other players (L Taylor, B Sanders, Sayers, etc.).

Very nice room Dan...and football is very acceptable. LOL.
By the way, as an avid member of not only this site, but of AVSforum, I'm curious as to what type of AV equipment you have in the room.

I have Control 4 Home Automation for my whole house. I have mostly Bose speakers along with a Sony DA5700ES (5+ yrs old), ButtKicker, and a Sony 85" TV. I'll go back to a projector someday. If you look in the front you can see a "screen" that we painted on the wall.

Nice guys! I've only got an old 42in TV in the memorabilia room (a square shaped room) but will either get rid of it or get a 50in (that's all that would fit due to the memorabilia on the walls). Originally it was to only watch sports films as I was sitting looking at the memorabilia but in reality I rarely use it and could use the wall space. My main theater is in the bonus room. I have a 70in tv that will be upgraded to 85 when the 70 craps out, 5.1 Polk RTI series speakers, a Marantz AVR and a WD NAS with all my movies and TV shows. Nice to be able to stream to any of my TV's from one location.

"So I have a question. It is about binders in which folks put 9 pocket sheets with cards. I see them on shelves sitting on end. How does one do this without the pages sagging/drooping down, thus causing damage to some cards"

Actually I would suggest that storing cards in a binder in 9/12/whatever pages sitting upright on the shelf might pose a problem down the road as gravity puts pressure on the cards at the lowest points causing the sheets and possibly the cards to curve. Not a huge concern but something to be aware of if it's to sit over an extended period of time....

I understand the concern as well.

I only have 4 binders, but I have always laid them flat. Just seems like the safest way. For those people who have dozens of albums, I guess laying them all flat would present quite a spatial challenge.

are stored sideways so that they hang down from the binder rings....Most are trade cards, silks, and cabinet photos - none in 9 pocket pages :-)

To avoid the sagging of binder pages, I think the key is preventing the binder front and back covers from splaying out by keeping them close to the front and back pages. If a binder is pretty much full, you can do this by sliding it upright between large books or other binders that are similarly full. If a binder isn't full, and the rigid front and back covers aren't close to parallel, then it's tougher to accomplish. Another way to address this problem is to purchase slip covers that binders slide into.

Great room, looks awesome! I really like those racks you have on each side of the fireplace. I am planning on picking up a couple like that next month, do you remember what brand they are, and would you recommend them?
Thanks,
Mike.

Welcome! You're not the only one who has those problems, but I'm not sure why that is. If my photos are "right" when I upload them, them come out "right."

Due to corporate restructuring I find myself in a temporary apartment while the majority of my collection is in storage. I was able to bring a couple boxes and make this small display.

This happens because the pictures you took are actually sideways, but the software in your phone or camera is rotating them to look "correct" for you. The images themselves have a piece of data called an EXIF tag, specifically, Orientation. This data is used to set the 0,0 point of a photo to a certain corner, so that it displays properly in any software that supports that tag. Unfortunately, this is still relatively new thing and there are still many websites that either do not read photo metadata, or strip that data when you upload the file because it actually does an image conversion.

Well, I read it, but that doesn't mean I got it (or know how to fix it).

It's way too late at night for words that big.

The one constant I have noticed is that if I take the photo in "horizontal" mode, it always posts perfectly. If I take the photo in "vertical" mode, it always posts sideways (no matter the amount of editing, rotating or tinkering I devote to it).

When you change the mode, you notice the screen rotates to show the new "up"? But you have turned the camera, up and down does not change in reality. The software makes it look like it has changed. The forum doesn't know anything about the fake "up" you had set on your camera, it is only seeing the image as how it is actually taken by the camera.

Basically, the picture is sideways because you held the camera sideways to take the picture.
