I created this thread in 2015. To this point it is the coolest collection of items I have ever seen and especially have the pleasure to own.
The items in the thread tell the story of 9yo Robert Coleman in 1934 when he won the Quaker Oats sweepstakes and got to go to NY and meet Ruth Gehrig and go to two Yankee games. The collection is from a scrapbook from the family.
I don't want to clog up the thread posting all the photos and writes ups again. Instead I will link to the original post, so all interested can view it there.
This is the original photo that started the journey. Little Robert in the child standing on the far left.
In this time of frustration and cynicism, I hope that seeing the experiences of a 9yo in 1934 can bring you some of the joy we all shared when we started our journey into sports memorabilia.
