Sons of Israel

A few years ago I featured a set of cards called Sons of Italy consisting of Italian-American ballplayers.  Recently I picked up a set along similar lines, though much smaller, featuring ballplayers of Jewish descent.  Being Jewish myself I thought it would be fun to make "The Chosen" one focus of my collecting this year.  These are a great start.

 

Song for a Sunday Night

I just discovered this group.  They were nominated for Best New Artist at this year's Grammy's.  Listen to a little or a lot.

A 124 Year Old Diamond Card

I recently added this to my collection of tobacco cards.  It's from the N218 Gems of the World 25 card set produced by Kinney Bros in 1889.  Cost?  99 cents. :)
