No, not a dream age; but rather a book written by John Shiffert, who writes a well researched on-line column in which he either discusses a current baseball event and shows comparisions to the past or just an historical topic. Since his column is not that well known, I got on the mailer for the company that published his book and picked one up.

I also picked up a signed copy of Jamey Newberg's annual Texas Ranger report. Having picked up the previous five years earlier this year, it was nice to get volume 6 before the next year.

I can't think of any cards, vintage or new, that I'd really want to get myself, however, I would not mind getting a Janis Joplin dress swatch from the 2001 Topps American Pie set. Pearl was among the very first albums I ever bought and I think it would be neat to have a rememberence in a strange way of a childhood memory
