Default Wed, May 7, 7-8PM session with author Brian Kappel on Leaf baseball and Babe Ruth
Author Brian Kappel presents his work on the design and creation of Leaf Gum's 1949 baseball set on Wed, May 7, from 7-8PM Eastern. It's the first major set to feature Babe Ruth after his passing in August 1948, something Leaf clearly used as a promotional angle!
