| Coaches like Jim Walton eluded collectors for years, simply because they never played in the bigs. |
Harvey Meiselman has heeded the (hobby) will of the people.
His 2012 Baseball Address List will add another tool for collectors to use. In a separate listing, addresses for “Coaches With No MLB Playing Experience” will appear.
Topps has included these unsung heroes in a few card sets. Cards or not, these coaches have storied minor league careers. Many of them have inspired today’s top players. I saluted one of these coaches in a Sept. 1 blog post.
Thanks to Harvey, a whole new team of baseball storytellers will be accessible by mail next season!
Coming Friday: Baseball’s toughest signers thank America’s military.
