On March 23rd, BostonGameUsed.com took its show on the road, so to speak, to Washington D.C. and the Library of Congress. We had the privilege of bringing twenty game used bats from our collection and other memorabelia to the LOC as part of a program entitled “Collecting Red Sox History.” We had the opportunity to explain the origins of our bat collection. Sarah Coffin, the Boston Red Sox Curator, also presented and we disused, among other things, the role of collectors in preserving and displaying historic memorabilia. The event was held in the historic Jefferson Building which also currently is hosting the LOC’s Baseball Americana Exhibit and was well attended by Red Sox Nation.
