Hi guys,
We made it to Sarasota for the winter. A lot of tree damage in the area around Ed Smith Stadium, but our apartment escaped any real damage.
Many of you know my love for Orioles minor league affiliate items, especially programs. Unfortunately, the Norfolk Tides and Aberdeen Ironbirds are no longer printing programs for their games. They do have scoresheets available at the games, but they're not the same as a program. The BaySox and Shorebirds still do 6-10 programs per season.
One of my collecting goals is to put together a run of programs from all the Orioles affiliates since 1954.
I know many of you, that follow this thread, are from the Maryland & Virginia areas. I know this is a long shot, but hoping some of you might have some old programs kicking around that you don't mind parting with. I probably have 1500+ different O's minor league programs from 1954-present, but still missing a few from the early 2000's.
Here's a list of teams and dates I need to complete a few runs. I'm willing to purchase, even if you only have one off the list. Probably not much value, except to me. Thanks in advance for any help.
