Thanks. Since I was born in 1948 I'm well versed in baseball from that era and since I collected autographs in my teens (before it became a business), I know a lot about the guys from the earlier days of baseball.  My favorite book is "The Glory of Their Times", a great book written in the 60's by Lawrence Ritter, who drove around the country with his tape recorder visiting ball players from the turn of the century.  I have many of their autographs including Hall of Famers, Stan Covelseki, "Wahoo" Sam Crawford, "Goose" Goslin, Hank Greenberg, Harry Hooper, Edd Roush, and Paul Waner.  

Even though I am still a baseball fanatic, I like to give younger fans a bit of the history I am aware of.  The blog is a great way of passing along info that I think may be interesting to others.  Thanks for the kind comment.
