AZ #1259

Today we went on a tour of Alcatraz while on our trip to San Francisco.  We were all pretty excited about it but it turned out to be even neater than we thought.

After the tour, Bill Baker, a former inmate at Alcatraz, was signing his book.  Of course Cami could not pass up getting him to sign her National Parks passport as well as a book we bought.  Mr Baker was inmate number 1259 at Alcatraz and was incarcerated from 1961-1963 there.  We chatted with him for a couple minutes after he signed her book.

A Big SI Trade

A few years ago I made a trade with fellow Sports Illustrated collector Tim McMahon and we were both happy.  He contacted me again recently and asked if I wanted to do another trade so we worked one out.  Today I received the following Sports Illustrated magazines:
04.10.1961 Jackie Brandt
02.12.1973 Bill Melton
10.19.1987 Greg Gagne
06.06.1988 Larry Bowa
and the following Sports Illustrated for Kids:
04.1992 Sandy Alomar Jr
I look forward to another trade with Tim down the road!
