Card exhibition at the Met

Apologies if this was already announced in here, but we don't recall mention of it and didn't find it in a search --
"The Old Ball Game: New York Baseball, 1887-1977"

Yeah I checked it out and even posted a few pictures. Pretty nice but very small. Just one hallway of photos mounted in frames on the wall. No display cases. Nice selection over time. My wife was amazed how beautiful the tobacco cards are. Would take no more than 20 minutes to see the whole thing. If you are in NYC worth a trip.

The suggested donation, at the door, is $25 but it is pay what you are comfortable with.

Anyone know when this opened? I went to the Met with my brother around mid-July, and might've missed it as we didn't stay all that long

Very cool, and well deserved.

I visited The Met in late July and viewed the baseball exhibit (modest but covered a wide range in a small section). Was far more impressed with the Ancient Egyptian section however. Could have spent a few days there. Thought the suggestion donation was very fair for what you received in return

Cole, the exhibit opened June 10th and is on display until November 13th.
