    Page 1 KIT YOUNG’S SALE #128 WE ARE TURNING 40! This month marks our 40th year in business. I started back in the stone ages as a one-man gang, mainly doing shows and eventually advertising in The Trader Speaks, Sports Collectors Digest, then later in Baseball Hobby News, The Sporting News, USA Weekly, The Advertiser and more. I was joined by Scott Cowan when he was a mere child of 15 (he’s now 51), then within a short time by Rob Rosen, Bob Ivanjack & Nacho Arredondo. These 4 stalwarts have been my partners for a combined 110 years (average 27 years each). I’ve noted before that we started before there were official price guides and long before words like “faxing”, “emailing” and “Googling” were part of our world. It’s hard to believe but we opened our doors before Microsoft, Home Depot & Costco even existed. It’s been a great ride so far. Some of our clients have dealt with us for 20-30 years, some longer. It’s still a kick to go to a big card show and have people stop by to say they ordered their first card from us. They usually say they ordered with they were 9-12. These collectors now are often 40-50. Crazy! Special thanks to the 100,000+ collectors we’ve served over the past 4 decades. I look forward to the coming years.

  • Baseball Memories Grade

    Baseball Memories Grade

    Baseball Memories Grade: 6-10 Subject: History, Language Arts Introduction: In this lesson, students investigate the impact of baseball on prior generations through an “oral history” exercise; that is, interviewing a parent, grandparent, or other older relative about attending major or minor league baseball games with a relative or friend. Background: Before beginning the lesson, the teacher may wish to introduce it by having students view various segments (many at the beginning of each of the episodes) where celebrities reminisce about viewing baseball games. Examples would be recollections by author Studs Terkel, comedian Billy Crystal, and historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. Terkel, for example, discusses Babe Ruth’s “called shot” home run against the Chicago Cubs in the 1932 World Series, while Crystal and Goodwin discuss their affection for the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers, respectively. Crystal and Goodwin also note the family loyalties of baseball in the film. See Goodwin’s essay, “Fan” at the end of this lesson. The teacher may also note that historically in literature and in films, baseball has been used as a way to cement the “bond” between parent and child as a shared experience, and that frequently team loyalty (or rivalries) have been handed down from generation to generation. In this lesson, students will act as historians, and will collect “oral history” information from relatives and neighbors who have recollections of attending either major league or minor league baseball games. They can either report on these recollections in class, or they may wish to collect and make them available online on the school Web page.

Baseball music, when examined as a group, reveals the remarkable congruence between the evolution of the sport from before the Civil War to the present, and the musical counterparts that have chronicled in song baseball’s greatest moments. While the music associated with baseball has grown to span a number of musical genres since the 1850s, the sport’s intersection with popular music was solidified in New York’s Tin Pan Alley publishing houses. From the late 1800s through
