Yeah, me too. Thanks, neat history.

While on lockdown, I've been sorting/organizing/beginning to sell thousands of cards I've collected over the years.

I found this in a stack. As I recall, I got it a used bookstore years ago.

That’s a good one David. I’ll have to add that to the collection one day.

How about a Lou Brock thread bump. I’m sure you’ve added some new items.

So, I just updated the catalog for the thread with the last year or so of additions. Less often than I had hoped, but lucky I guess that's what global pandemic lockdowns are for, right?

Anyway, there were 45 or so distinct additions, bringing the total to around ~720 (it's always necessary to presume I miscounted something along the way), as well as a dozen or so additional cross-references and improvements gleaned from new information/connections. Well done.

But what's most interesting is how eclectic the posts continue to be, as there were multiple additions to all 10 of the primary item categories and also most of the subcategories, including obscure groupings like statues/figurines, foreign language publications, and even music/film!

Since I am not as cultured apparently as some of the rest of you though, my next addition in the next post will be somewhat more mundane...

Michael,

Sorry, just saw this post. I love the Bazooka Stamp. I still don’t have one. I was outbid the last time a full sheet was offered on eBay.

Hope you’re doing well and anytime you pick up any Clemente items, I’d love to see them.
