In addition to that poster, Classic Baseball Cards: The Golden Years, 1886-1956 (Hardcover) by Frank Slocum was massive in inspiring me to collect vintage stuff. It has great color photographs of so many pre-war cards -- including, I believe, the entire T206 set -- I can't believe you can buy this book used for under $10!

I just bought another one for my office. Honestly, it should be a required purchase for everyone on Net54. |
Paul (T206Collector), I have that book! It is really amazing, and I agree that all net54ers should have it.
Bill, I hear ya. The Bowman Paige is my holy grail, that's the big one I'm still a ways from getting. But it will happen!
