Cooperstown, NY has to be one of the best towns in the country if you are a baseball fan. I walked around and looked at every single HOF plaque. I had no idea that there were so many writers in the Hall of Fame. While I was there I picked up a “Goose” Gossage 2008 HOF inductee bat that is limited to 500. That may seem like a lot of baseball bats, but 500 isn’t very many. I also picked up a bat that is modeled after the type Napoleon Lajoie used. Right down the street from the HOF there is a wax museum which has about 30 different wax figures on display. Below are a few pictures that I took. The rest of the pictures can be found in the Photostream to your right. Enjoy!!!

Great Photos! I had the pleasure of going to Cooperstown last year as my wife took me there for my birthday. I must say it’s a great little town and the HOF is a trip that every baseball fan must make. If your interested, here is my collection of photos: http://flickr.com/photos/cooper-pics/sets/72157600591690953/
Awesome photos!!
Do you know where I could purchase large quantities of Ernie Grunfeld basketball cards.
Thanks……………….
Larry,
The Beckett Marketplace seems to be the best place to find cards of Ernie Grunfeld. eBay, Sportslots, and a few other places don’t have very much. Here is a link to the site:

I’m not sure how many you plan to buy, but they do have some sellers with 50+ and 70+ cards of Grunfeld. I hope that was able to help. Thanks.

Again the snaps are shoot well through the sports and sports cards concerns. To buy a right sports card, there has to have an authentic shop or resource.
