Old Judge Book? And an unrelated Obak question
 

Posted By: <b>Dave Hornish</b><p>Yes, you all go to Chi-town and here I sit, posting away....caught this on the Non Sport board that Jay Miiler is writing a book on Old Judges, and not just the baseball subjects. Anyone know about this?<br /><br />Also, is there a reference work available outside of Lipset's that covers T212 Obaks in depth?<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Jay</b><p>The Old Judge book, an effort of myself, Joe Gonsowski and Richard Masson, will concentrate on Goodwin & Co. photographic baseball cards. There will be some mention of other topics, but the main focus is N172, N173 and N175.

Posted By: <b>Jay</b><p>It was my pleasure to meet all you guys in person at the National. I'll remember the people a lot longer than I'll remember the cards.
