Dave,

I knew I had a good feeling about it! So glad they're back where they belong.

Happy Holidays.

Rob

This is the best Christmas gift ever as a PNW historian, and baseball fan! Over the moon to hear it was ALL recovered.

As a Washington microfiche junky; to receive an email from Dave for the NAAM exhibit Pitch Black was like getting called up to the big leagues. He is a true gentleman collector and preservationist. Thank you for your endless, benevolent support of baseball in the Northwest. Happy Holidays sir.

Wow!
 

Just now read this entire thread. Wow! Great News & just in time for Christmas!

So glad the collection was recovered. (This gives me pause as I was considering possibly loaning some of my Nashville/Southern collection to be displayed in the future at Sulphur Dell park in Nashville) Unless it was in a case like the one showed which was also in a room where the doors locked and there were multiple cameras, I would probably have to pass on this expedition as my heart sank when I first starting reading this thread. I was more worried about damage to the items or possibly becoming lost after the thieves realized they wouldn't be able to get away with a sale, etc. very easily... Scary.

So glad it ended well - Cheers

Amazing results!
 

Great news Dave! I am relieved that all items were recovered. None suffered damages, I hope? Are they going back on display eventually, or are you understandably gun-shy?

Seems like theft is up at a lot of venues for baseball cards and memorabilia. I'm very happy any time scum like this is caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
