It used to be easy to make an appointment to see the Spalding Collection but it is tougher today. You need a reason, such as you are writing an article or need to do major research, and there's some red tape when you get there. But ultimately you can get to see it.

And no, they don't lend out items from the collection. What if you took out a cabinet card worth 10K and just called the next day and said Gee, I think I lost it. That wouldn't work too well.
