Fond memories of Cooperstown...my dad & I used to go almost every year from the early 90's to the mid-00's. Walking around the Hall/Museum is magical. Time stands still...you don't know if you spent 2 hours in there, or 5 hours. Just poke around and soak it all in.
We always loved Doubleday Cafe (on Main St) for lunch, then we would just wander around the town, and peruse the memorabilia shops.
Also...long story, short- my dad (who passed away in 2015) has a beautiful pen & ink sketch (of the facade of the Hall) as part of the permanent art collection at the Hall. He was an amazing artist, and I donated it after he passed away. The acquisitions committee voted unanimously to accept the donation (yes, they vote on whether or not to accept a donation). Not sure if it's on display or not, but is part of their rotating art collection.
Image below...LMK if you see it!
Regards,
Michael
PS- Hi David! Your pics of the BB Card display at the Hall, brings back some great memories.
