Default I could stare at this collection for hours!

Just an amazing collection Dan! I can only imagine the years and miles traveled to amass such a collection. Your collection represents countless memories and friendships. Thank you for sharing!

We need a new rule on this thread. Anytime you post a bookcase photo with books you must also post closeups. Bibliophiles like me need to see the titles!

This will be fun...interesting and diagnostic, too ...I love books with pictures, esp. those of vintage equipment and memorabilia. Here are some of the titles in my very small and modest book case:

Boxed, 1st Edition of the McMillan Baseball Encyclopedia

Joe DiMaggio’s ‘Lucky to be a Yankee’

1st Edition of ‘The Babe Ruth Story’

Signed copy of ‘Now Pitching, Bob Feller’

‘Baseball in the Garden of Eden’ by Thorn…signed and personalized…one of
my very favorite non-vintage items..the 'bible' of early baseball.

‘Baseball Legends of Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery’ by Nash

Copies of the two books I composed and published…the Dugout Treasures
series.

D. Nemec’s, ‘The Beer ad Whiskey League’…signed and personalized

‘Baseball Gloves…1880s -1940s’ by John Graham

'Sports Uniforms and Equipment'...a great book that depicts some simply
outstanding collections.

Nat Geo’s ‘Baseball As America’

‘Treasures of the Baseball Hall of Fame’

And, while not in the bookcase, here is another book that found a home in my hobby room...a 1898 copy of the History of the Boston BBC.

Hope to see some other bookcases out there!!

Jon,
Great displays! I never considered that belts would present so well in those tubes but that Excelsior belt looks fantastic alongside the bats.
