March 2011 pick-up thread
A new month, and hopefully it's full of new pickups for all of us.
My latest pickup, to add to my growing collection of 19th century Harvard sports collectibles, is this scorecard from "Class Day" in 1882, featuring a game between the Harvard baseball team from 1877 vs. the 1882 squad.
Most notable in the lineup of the 1877 is "Thayer, C", which is none other than Frederick Thayer, inventor of the catcher's mask.
