An interesting side note on the 1887 cabinet. For those of you who have read or are reading "Fifty-Nine in "84" (The Hoss Radbourn bio) you will remember that Cyclone Miller is mentioned as having pitched a few games for Providence in 1884. Joe "Cyclone" Miller was on the 1887 Lincoln team and is pictured at left in the top row of the cabinet. Also pictured is Fred Lange, author of a famous work about baseball on the Pacific Coast.

Congrats Jay! Do you know if this is the same one that sold in the 1990s in an Oregon Trail auction? Are you aware of any other copies of this cabinet? I'd like to snag one some day, I couldn't afford to go after this one at the moment.

Dan--I don't have a clue. I'm not as diligent as I should be at researching these things.

Great looking cabinet, Jay. Congrats!

The instigator of those arguments obviously missed the point of Leon's post.

I agree Paul and Wonka. That comment didn't go unnoticed......last warning....to ALL concerned....I am really not taking any sides I just want the bickering to cease. Next one to throw a jab, or veiled innuendo, is going to get a time out. Forewarned is fair-warned, imo......
