As some of you know, I collect signed First Day Covers from Cooperstown 1939. I came across this story and I had to share.

I live about 2 hours away and have been there several times. Love it there! Looks like my son will finally get to play in a tournament there next year. Looking forward to it!

I got these 18 sigs in the 80's, most at card shows.
Gave it to my son who will give it to his eldest son

That's a great piece Jay! Especially getting the signatures in person. My son will be the beneficiary of most of my pickups as well (God willing!)
