mike macI think Tom means collecting vintage, not books on vintage baseball. That was a sweet article, though.
I'll bet this is an old post, but someone could spice it up with new insights.
How about answers to questions like:
1. Does getting the ACC complement Lipset's book, in terms of the baseball stuff? Is that book worth the hassle of locating and bidding on eBay, because those are not easy to locate on the used book sites, for sure, anymore?
2. Is SCD's Std Cat or Beckett worth purchasing annually for their checklists? Are their checklists reliable? D. Purdy shredded Hagar's book but some on this board suggests the photos are great. Is there a best year for these price guides?
3. There is that book on T206, but this is 20th cent. What about sets of 19th cent. stuff? Anything out there on the OJ?
