I'm a SABR member, and just checked the SABR directory. The only Nash that is a member of SABR is a Robert Nash from Nebraska - Peter Nash is apparently not a member anymore.

I wouldn't claim that SABR is perfect - no organization is - but it has a lot of great members and I appreciate all it's done.

That is great to hear. It's not only that he was a member, they had held him in high acclaim, from what I remember. And no doubt, Peter Nash is very knowledgeable about the history of baseball. Kind of like Bank Burglers studying diagrams of banks. I am sure some of them are experts at bank architecture.

This sort of goes with the theme of the thread.

A Vintage Card Society? Where do I pay my Home Owners Association fees, sorry - I meant Vintage Card Society fees.

A big negative for me.

I have always thought that if membership on the forum were $1 a year, the membership would go down substantially. People, including me, don't want to pay for stuff!

And a baseball ticket to an Annual Ball, from 1867....quite early and ornate..
