Great thread!

Love the early team picture Gary.

What a great day for Deacon and his accomplishments. The more I studied his career, the more astonished I was that he wasn't in the Hall, many times venting on this forum. He quickly became one of my favorite players and I've collected him pretty hardcore over the last decade. I'd like to contribute to this thread with some of my favorite items. A couple cabinets and his bat while with Detroit (like other items previously shared, the bat came from the Deacon White estate).

Keep the Deacon White items coming. Many of his cards are difficult, but they are out there.
