And this Cardinals program is really special to me: it was bought by my grandfather at the 1934 World Series!
One of Dizzy Dean's cousins lived across the street from the family home in Okemah, Oklahoma. When the Cardinals made the Series, Grandpa took the train to St. Louis to see a game. As far as we know, it was the only big-league game he ever saw. He was a devoted fan by radio and newspaper, however. He brought back his program and three souvenir bats for my dad and his brothers. I only have two of the bats: a Pepper Martin and a Paul Dean. Someday, my sons will hopefully treasure them as I do.
