Count me in Frank....but I have to refill my stomach medication first. When I eat bratwurst I pay later....

And apologies for hijacking this thread....maybe we should get back to Cameo Pepsins.

If people knew where Pepsin came from they probably wouldn't put it in their mouth.

Most of the candies and gums associated with baseball cards look dreadfully unhealthy. I couldn't imagine eating the chocolate and caramels put out with the 1910 era E-cards.

Very nice to see that the collection now is with a great collector such as Keith. Having owned about half of that collection 60+ pins for some 35+ years it was great to read about some of the pins that I didnt even know about. The John McGraw part was very intresting. I also loved to see the variations of the pins, some I had some I didnt. I do know a few board members did end up with some of mine My Cy Young , Buck Ewing, and I do know that I had bought back my Dummy Hoy Pin from the REA auction and ended up selling it to one of our board members who was putting a collection together for his son who is Deaf. Keith great job on the article and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. To let you know the money went to a good cause! Putting my son thru medical school! 4 years at Fordham and now on to Duke medical school in August! Anyone on the board have an extra 200,000 I can borrow!
