I went through the Little League World Series Museum about 7 years ago and I hadn’t been back until today. Its not the biggest museum in the world but if your a baseball fan you’ll enjoy it. Click on each photo for a closer look.
Jackie Robinson display. Inside the case they have two Robinson baseball cards – 1954 & 1955 Topps.
Buck Leonard
George W. Bush
Connie Mack – this would be the ultimate addition to my Phillies collection
Jimmy Carter – Did you know he only attended one MLB game while he was President?
The Little League Trophy – this was on display at the National Baseball HOF until 1984. Little League started the year the Baseball HOF opened to the public.
I need one of these in my room. The bats rotate when you push the buttons.
Very early Little League uniform
Carl Stotz started Little League baseball in 1939. With all the crazy cards put into circulation today, I’m surprised they never made one of him. Many pro baseball players have played in the Little League World Series like Cal Ripken, Jr and Dale Murphy. I could see a cut signature being made of Mr. Stotz.

Well, I thought I would take a shot at a retail box of 2008 Upper Deck Artifacts baseball cards (after seeing Mario from Wax Heaven’s break yesturday how could I not). On the box it states “one memorabilia card per box”. I got lucky and pulled two hits from it. These cards look really cool. I got a few historic insert cards and my favorite one has to be the creation of baseball. Did you know that Upper Deck misspelled “States” on the back? They spelled it “Stares”. I pulled the following:
Memorabilia:
Carlos Lee Boxscore Jersey
Autograph:
Alberto Gonzalez Rookie Auto #’ed/75
Yankee Legacy Inserts:
Wally Pipp
Waite Hoyt
