With as excited as I was about getting the A35 Round Album set itself, I'll admit that I was much more excited about putting together this massive project, and seeing its completion. I am exhausted, and went to bed nearly every night with it on my mind, going from the extreme of wrestling with thoughts of if this is all even worth it, to being jump-out-of-my-skin excited for it to be finished. Either way, it has certainly helped this COVID-19 Quarantine go by quicker, which has also afforded more more time to dedicate to this fun and challenging project.
The more I learn about 19th century baseball, the more I'm amazed and intrigued by its rich history. We will never be able to hear King Kelly's thick Irish accent, or see footage of Roger Connor hitting a home run. We don't even have much in the way of any photographs of players playing, much less any video footage or audio clips. I guess that is what makes it such a treat owning relics that baseball fans have fawned over for nearly 150 years.
