Default Pittsburgh Sports Museum

I was in downtown Pittsburgh on business this week, and had a chance to visit the sports museum there. Here's a few photos of the pre-war stuff I found:
Anybody else been there?

This is in fact at the Heinz History Center in the Strip District. I enjoy stopping by there about once a year and checking out the cards.

Yes, it is called the Heinz History Center and it has 5 floors of museum displays. There are sports items on 2 floors. The sports part is called the Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum. The one photo shows a 1909 World Series ticket stub and an M116 Wagner card.
