I'm sad to post about the death this morning of my good friend, historian, collector, hobby pioneer Ray Medeiros. I'm sure many on this board had contact with Ray over the years, he was incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of the hobby, a class gentleman very willing to share his knowledge with anyone.
George Vrechek did a wonderful article on Ray a few years ago that can be found on the link below:
The cover photo shows Ray sitting next to his 9 volume scrapbook of Ted Williams material!
