Posted By: <b>Fred C</b><p>Sean,<br><br>If you're wondering whether or not to buy the book, I'd just take a leap of faith and just buy it. This is a book that NOBODY ever thought would be written. I've only seen the scans of the pages that were posted in this bull board and from what I saw this is going to be one of those &quot;have to have&quot; books if you really enjoy baseball cardboard.

Posted By: <b>Jay</b><p>Thanks Steve. It seems to have made it to the mid-continent on Friday. I thought it would hit the coasts today but maybe I was overly optimistic.

Posted By: <b>Joe_G.</b><p>It is quite rewarding to see the recipients post with positive feedback.<br><br>Joe - If I obtain a duplicate of Lady Baldwin I will gladly trade it back to you for the items I sent your way in the original trade (Getzien w Detroit, SGC40 Thompson, and a little cash). I'm having trouble replacing that Getzien pose.<br><br>Best Regards,<br>Joe Gonsowski

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>It's the best book ever written on a baseball card set, and nothing before it has even come close. Fortunately, the set is complex enough to warrant this exhaustive study. I don't believe it could ever be topped.

Posted By: <b>Mike Peich</b><p>Kudos to Jay, Richard and Joe on an impressive book. Lew Lipset did groundbreaking work with his books, but the three of you have redefined the genre. Everyone from this point forward will use your Old Judge book as the standard for presenting their research--highly informative and an enjoyable reading experience. I'm continuing to dip into it this evening--couldn't wait to get home and resume reading.<br><br>Thank you,<br>Mike<br><br>PS--Hey Dan, do we share the same delivery guy? Mine was leaning against the garage, too, and I didn't discover it until I walked the dog last evening.
