Dear Mark
Several of "the native New Yorkers" who responded to your request have
apparently not been to the Waldorf Astoria
For the past 77 years the hotel has been at 301 Park Avenue which is
48th Street and Park Avenue, not 39th Street
The Spalding collection at the Library can only be viewed by appointment
Brigandi Stamp and Coin on 44th Street between 5th and 6th has a number
of interesting baseball items in the store including some cool advertising signs.
You may also attempt to contact The Print Room at the Metropolitan Museum
of Art. The Burdick collection (which we have viewed on ten separate occasions)
can be reviewed if a special appointment is secured.
