Cool (at least to me) Find
Some of you know that I collect cards of my great-grandfather, Frank "Bullet" Miller. I found this in my usual eBay searches today; it is a Christmas card that my great-grandmother sent which included a $2 check to renew his membership in the Old Time Ball Player Association. The best part is that the great-grandson born on December 8 that is mentioned in the last paragraph was me.
Does anyone know who the Mr. Krueger that the card was sent to would be? I have found these two possibilities: Joe Krueger or Ernie Krueger http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...psa121d036.jpg |
That is very cool. Congrats on the find!
|
That is a really neat find!!
|
Thanks
|
yeah...really neat. i can't imagine stumbling upon a reference to me on ebay....very weird, in a cool kind of way.

Dude, 11 pounds! You were a HUGE baby, make sure you get your Mom something extra nice on Mothers Day for putting her through all that!
|
Ha, I figured that wasn't going to slip by. My wife would probably tell you that I'm still a big baby :)
|
That's beyond cool brother...Something to cherish for sure!...
|
Really cool.

WOW!! Pretty awesome to stumble upon that one! Seriously, what are the chances??
|
Very cool for it to find it's way home. :)
|
That is one of the best finds I have ever read about on this forum. To find a relative's postcard and then to have a reference to your own birth is incredible. Congratulations!

Fantastic. Could you show some of your items?

That is simply an incredible find! You must have had a very "weird & eerie" feeling come over you when you saw it & actually read the contents of the letter! I know I certainly would have!

You seriously found that on Ebay?!?! How cool is that.
I've written a couple of books and they've show up on ebay a good bit, but I could never imagine finding something personal like that. Your story must have freaked out the seller. |
The seller did think it was pretty cool. She said she listed it months ago; I have no idea why it took me so long to notice it. It arrived yesterday and I could not be happier.
