A couple of days ago I mentioned not minding nail holes in cards...always thought it cool that someone back in the day liked them enough to put them on the wall. I'm sure a few of you have seen these photos already, but if you haven't...they're pretty great! Anyone else know of 1910's-20's photos with cards in them?

I can easily make out the T206 Matt (cap) and T206 Young (glove) on the top row of those T206s. Would anyone else have cried if there was a Wags? Razz

Those pictures are awesome. This is what the modern digs look like. As always you must have a bag of twizzlers:
