What is that? Where did that come from? And what is the root or history or etymology of that beautiful, beautiful thing? It looks like an image of a real pack of cards instead of an image of an image.

I saw a post on a TTM auto group recently that said he offers signed greeting cards for any occasion for (IIRC) $10.

Wasn't there a thread here from a long, long time ago where youse spoke with or wrote to Frank Thomas and there was a DIY custom Thomas Mets basebal card involved?

Frank Thomas did come to visit us a number of years ago.

Not only that, but we got a shout-out from Ira Kaplan on the Yo La Tengo home page.

Too bad it's a broken link, due to the change in the domain name. Here's the updated link: http://archives.thecranepool.net/1900/f1_t1946.shtml

That is oral history level threading.
