The Baseball Archive on diamondfans.com
January 6, 2008
The Baseball Archive is a collection of public domain materials relevant to baseball. Items will be drawn primarily from two sources: U.S. Federal government documents, and older materials for which the copyright has expired. The biggest limitation will be on how fast I can scan or otherwise acquire the documents, and how much time I can devote to the project.
