Collectors Digest- Sept. 1965- Egan on collecting
One of the enjoyable things for me is to see how far our hobby has come. In doing that, studying the history of the hobby is a lot of fun. There are several great, old articles in our Archive section, for viewing anytime. Here is a hobby publication, Collectors Digest, from 1965. Richard Egan, arguably the father of baseball candy card collecting and author of the seminal book on the subject, wrote this article concerning the hobby. I was all of 4 yrs old when this was put out. It seems as T206s have gone up a bit too!!
