Default EXCLUSIVE photo from the HOF basement in Cooperstown, where BB collectibles go to die

Posted By: Jared

The problem with the HOF (and most museums) is that they insist on "telling the story" with exhibits, which is just a high-maintenance time-consuming task so I understand why they can't display it all in that manner.

However, the HOF (and other museums) should consider having a "baseball fanatics" annex, where all that stuff in the basement is just displayed/stored ad hoc in enclosed cases without descriptions. That way people can at least see the treasure, even if the average person has no idea of the significance of half of the stuff they're looking at.
