Collecting Black Sox

Beautiful item Richard. I think a lot of baseball fans forget how damaging this scandal was for baseball. You are right - it is still felt to this day. I believe the steroid mess will affect baseball in a similar, lasting way. The difference is the steroid players have the argument that they were doing it to "help" the game. I don't believe this but it has a better ring to it than fixing games.

Thanks for all the great information and pictures. I can't wait to start working on this collection more. One question, is obtaining a McMullin realistic? From what I hear, it sounds like I will have to be extremely lucky to find one.
