Most of collectors are aware that the Burdick Collection is housed
in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and that the New York Public
Library, The Hall of Fame, The Boston Public Library and
The Smithsonian each have formidable collections of rare baseball cards.
What other museums/public institutions have large collections?
To what extent are they accessible to the public?
Which collections can be viewed on line?
There are also samples of items which were given to the government
for patents which are on file- some of which can be viewed on-line
Our idea would be to create a web site which includes all the collections
A business model could be created which would generate income for these
highly cherished public institutions.
Baseball is such a vital part of American History, that the right group
of people could certainly make this a reality.
Your thoughts?
