The Jefferson R. Burdick collection of ephemera at The Met contains one of the most distinguished collections of historical baseball cards anywhere in the world. In 1947, Burdick (1900–1963), an electrician from Syracuse, New York, and avid collector of ephemera, began to donate in large batches his holdings of more than 300,000 trade cards, postcards, and posters to the Museum. Included in the donation were more than 30,000 baseball cards dating back to the 1880s.
This exhibition features over one hundred dating cards from 1895 to 1956. Produced using a variety of printing techniques and in a range of styles, the cards feature legends of the game from a bygone era.

It&#39;s real and effective. It&#39;s the official channel, which is much more reliable than the black guy at the door who blocks the road to sell you stuff. Hahahaha. We made an appointment at 9 a.m., and there weren&#39;t many people at that time. But because we were waiting for people, there was already a long line at 9:30. It&#39;s better to go earlier.

Rockefeller Center

It is recommended to queue up at the time of the reservation ticket, and let in after the point, no need to wait; the diversion guide is well done, not too congested; the observation deck is windy and cold in May; the ticket price for watching the sunset in the evening is a bit more expensive, and make an appointment early.
