There’s a huge baseball card collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art! I know! And it’s been there a long time, it’s a permanent collection. I know! And this summer it will feature cards from the Deadball Era!

There are 30,000 cards (second largest collection to Cooperstown‘s Hall of Fame.) I can’t wait to check it–I am sure that there are cards of my great-grandfather, Con Daily (and his brother Ed!)

How fabulous is this?! Check it out! And in the meantime, check out this cool article and video by ESPN’s Paul Lukas about the exhibit http://espn.go.com/blog/playbook/fandom/post/_/id/22048/inside-the-mets-surprising-card-collection
