Half the fun of these pieces of cardboard is the stories behind them and how they tell not only the history of baseball, but America as well.
My daughter brought Ray [Chapman] & Me home from the library today. She's still in first grade but was excited about our bedtime story tonight. Just read the first few chapters. She has some modern cards, but I might have to get her a Chapman after we finish the book.
