I'm off to a Milwaukee Braves reunion in the next few months, attending as a fan, though I might slip some work into the mix by sharing the doings of the event in Sports Collectors Digest.

The guest list includes Bob Uecker and Andy Pafko, among others. And, yes, there is an opportunity to get some autographs. So I'm toying with the idea of having them sign some of the Milwaukee Braves yearbooks I have or have them sign a baseball. I like the look of autographs on a clean baseball, and they display well.

If I had them sign the yearbooks, I would have them sign their photos inside and then the only people who would know it's there is me. And maybe that's all that maters. After all, I'm not in the game of seeing how much I can get for my collectibles. I'll keep them forever and pass them along to my son. I don't acquire real high-end stuff anyway, so it's more sentimental value.

I display the yearbooks on a wall, in a sleeve that allows for easy removal. In one of the yearbooks, I found a scorecard someone filled out and I might enjoy that scorecard more than the yearbook. You don't see many people filling out the scorecard any more. So if you're yearbook hunting, make sure to flip through the pages, because you just might find some more goodies hidden inside than just the photos.
