Need Help with Baseball Stats

[Zach Wheat]

Tony:

Ernie Harwell contributed his extensive collection of baseball related material to The Detroit Public Library. Specifically, they have the Spalding guide from 1912 and several other years. Here is the link:

Since this is only a digital image of the cover, you will need to call and see if they can help you with the contents. Let me know if I can help, I am in a NW suburb of metro Detroit.

On another note, Ernie contributed his collection of over 250,000 baseball cards, including some Allen & Ginter, OJ's, etc. The DPL in their infinite wisdome stamped the back of some of the key cards like this N28 of John Ward with a stamp that indicates it is now the property of the Detroit Public Library.

The DPL also has a section titled "Women in Baseball" (if someone could alert Joanne to this thread, I know she has an interest in this). Unfortunately many of the items are not catalogued and you have to make a visit in person to view the items.

Let me know if I can help.

Regards,
