I collect civil war diaries as well as other historically interesting diaries. Funny thing, I got into them at the time of Rucker's auction about ten years ago when I won a civil war diary that had baseball content (played by the soldiers). At that time I had been collecting a few OJ's and other 19th century baseball for a couple of years. I then quit the baseball collecting and began heavily collecting civil war diaries and images. I have since got out of the images but still collect all kinds of original handwritten diaries. I've been through well over a hundred but have slowed down some now that I have jumped back into vintage baseball.
