"The Celebrant" for a T206
 
Posted By: <b>Mike Masinick</b><p>Hi guys,<br /> There was a thread a few weeks ago on the main board about the book "The Celebrant" which is a historical fiction novel about Christie Mathewson and a bunch of the other players from 1900-1920 or so. I got it on half.com and just finished it. Very enjoyable book which is (in my opinion) written in the style and feel of F. Scott Fitzgerald.<br /><br /> Anyway, I'm done with the book and I thought I'd pass it on. I'm looking for any T206 card in decent shape. As long as it's not a complete beater, doesn't have any major creases, and it's not one of the 30 or so that I already have, I'll trade the book for it with postage paid. Anyone interested?<br /><br />mike@cardtarget.com

Posted By: <b>steve f</b><p>Mike, Thanks for the review. Santa brung me the Celebrant and several other deadball-eras. Currently deep into the Battle of Dunkirk (heavy read) and can't wait to get back to good ol' baseball.

"The Celebrant" for a T206
 
Posted By: <b>Mike</b><p>It's not an easy read by an means (small print and lots of words on big pages - VERY long chapters, etc.), but it's a very cool story and really gives personalities to a lot of the ballplayers we're all familiar with.
