Yet another one of the books I have yet to read is 'Smithsonian Baseball: Inside the World's Finest Private Collections' which includes a write up '19th-Century Memorabilia' by Corey R. Shanus and Net54's own Barry Sloate, but, regrettably, also includes a Bill Mastro contribution.
Speaking of Mastro's contribution, it would be fun to see Brian Seigel's collection while he still owned THE CARD. I think seeing Barry Halper's Collection in person would have been a great thrill. If you don't have one already, I would highly recommend getting of copy of his catalog from when he sold everything that wasn't donated to museums.

For myself, I'm more into tactile, and display type pieces than cards, so the three collections I'd like to see in person, in no particular order are....
1. Perezfan (Mark) 2. Vintagesportscollector (Joe) 3. Carlton Hendricks

Wow ... I never expected to make this list! Thanks for the shout out Ken.
I know many will find this crazy ... but I'd love to see John Roger's collection. Why? With the hope that I would learn enough from viewing it to be able to identify fake versus the legitimate photos. (I don't think that's a skill I currently possess.) From what John's collection sounds like ... he has lots of both ... so I should be able to learn how to spot the differences. Cheers, Patrick

Happy to see how this thread is turning out. Its about vintage baseball, not about a certain issue or even just cards. Its everything that interests someone and they would like to see.
Honestly, had never heard of Marshall Fogel before this thread. Sounds like he has cool stuff. Wouldn't make my list, but found out about a great passion someone has for something vintage baseball. A hobby, not a business. Think that is what most of us are in it for.

twist...
I'll go off the board here, but I would like to see an REA auction with all the items together displayed nice to check out and gawk. Obviously not any one persons stuff, but a heck of an assemblage, er, collection.
And my own collection, pretty fond of it, but has not been put all together in one room for display in long, long time - plus I own it all - how sweet it is.

Guess I wouldn't have thought of Hefner's House of Babes as a collection, but it is. He trades for what he sees as upgrades and when something isn't the shiny new thing everyone thought would be the hot new thing any more, he trades for something new.

Collection
I have had the privilege of Seeing Marshall Fogel's collection and not only is it cover everything (cards, memorabilia, photo's etc...) it is quite literally the best of the best. Most everything's condition is near mint as well as being extremely rare. Books and books of photo, bats, gloves, pennants, ads etc... He also collects native American artifacts and that collection in it self is quite amazing as well. He was a great host and was very gracious to allow me to sit on his floor and go through his collection. A true gentleman
