What do you do when you can't find anything to add?

There are a lot of things out there that you might not realize (many books)- cheap stuff that will cost less then 100 bucks but is very worth it

Try google book searches and a lot of neat things will pop up

A couple of examples of the kind of stuff

1 Man on Spikes - few know it has an entire chapter on integration
2. The Negros in Sports by Edwin Henderson - the 1949 edition had an whole chapter on integration
3. Baseball Joe Around the World - has a number of pages about a game with a fictionalized version of Jose Mendez brought in as a ringer

I am sure there are many others out there, they won't hurt the bank account, and the search will fill the void until something big comes up

Would love to see some of your collection!

Love this idea as well. Picked up quite a few baseball books over the last 3 years, but am not familiar with the ones you mentioned here.
