    Today's Photo of the Day...... The Washington Monument (Frank Howard)

    I remember reading about Frank Howard as a young boy and and for some reason I had always wanted to meet him. I am unsure as to why I held a fascination with this player I had only seen on television a few times as he was not a superstar by today's definition but there was just something that...

    A quick photo of the day......The Friendly Confines on a cold Saturday night in January

    What's in a nickname? Just ask Jack "Lucky" Lohkre

    Jack "Lucky" Lohrke certainly earned his nickname during his life here on earth. Lohrke was a fledgling infielder in the New York Giants (Yes..New York) system who seemed to have cheated death six times before his professional baseball career would even get of the ground. Having grown up in...

Many players played for teams near the end of their career that were different than who we remember them being great for so to see...

    Stop me if you heard this one before….. A nine year old walks into a dime store and stops dead in his tracks at the sight of ten boxes of baseball cards in the clearance bin. Glorious wax packs with cartoon-like baseball players on the front stare at him as the scent of mouthwatering bubble...

    The strange case of Gil Hodges and the missing Dormand post card

    A few years ago I posted a set spotlight that I had written regarding Dormand post cards and with that was the progress of the set I was working on (do an advanced search on my name and Dormand and you will find the article).

    Photo(s) of the day......The Babe

    Babe Ruth has been the epitome of baseball for over a century and his lasting legacy has not been diminished over time. It is amazing to me that Ruth may be known by as many people today as he was during his playing days. If you ask the average man or woman on the street to name a baseball...

    Setting aside prospecting.....Does anyone "invest" in sportscards and had a decent return
