Welcome to the "fray".....I mean Forum lol........

This is my fave quote about Charles Albert "Chief Bender.......

“If I had all the men I’ve ever handled, and they were in their prime, and there was one game I wanted to win above all others,” said Philadelphia Athletics icon Connie Mack, who managed fellow all-time pitching greats Lefty Grove, Herb Pennock, Eddie Plank, and Rube Waddell, “Albert would be my man.”

Peace, Mike

I would think female collectors are rare, but I could be wrong.

Default rare....

Renay is rare........ in good ways all around!

In terms of female collectors, I've been in the hobby since 1976 and I would agree that at shows, online forums, that it is rare to meet a female sporstscard collector. Maybe they are just shy?

I had a shop for many years and I'd say that my customers were 95% male, 5% female. I had a few but not many. They all were passionate about the hobby and knew their stuff!

Peace, Mike

Hello!

Female collector here. Australian as well ��

I am a big women in baseball collector, with a strong focus on the AAGPBL. I also collect 1920-1940 bats and gloves, snapshots, catchers equipment and Ruth related items.

This is a great forum and I have met some excellent collectors on here.

Good on ya!

I have been up and down your east coast in 5 trips - Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns, Palm Cove, Port Douglas and Kuranda. My wife and I were married in Sydney, 16 years this November. My next trip there I would like to revisit Brisbane, to show my wife Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary and Mt Coot-tha, the Red Center, would like to hike around Uluru and possibly your city to see the Cricket Grounds. I am an Olympic historian and have only seen it while watching 'The Ashes' on the telly during one of my trips.

Default First lady Grace Coolidge, Senators Rooter

Among the many female friends of baseball, we should count first lady Grace Coolidge. Frommer expands: Calvin Coolidge wasn't much of a baseball fan, but he had to fake it. The Senators won their only World Series during his presidency, in 1924, and the team was a national sensation. Coolidge became the first president to attend a World Series opener, where he threw out the first ball. But it was his wife, Grace, who was the real fan in the family. She kept score during the World Series games and kept her husband in the game. (You Gotta Have Heart by Frederic J. Frommer.)

Here are a couple of shots showcasing Coolidge in the act supported by his superior, the stylishly attired baseball fan and First Lady, Grace.
