"Take
me out to the Ball Game" |
|
PLEASE..NOTE When Brett started playing baseball back in
1986, computers weren't invented!! ... all of the details, photos
and newspaper articles were put into albumns ... there are around
twenty-five of these albumns, each one being in A4 size and around
two/three inches thick ... literally hundreds and thousands of
pages, and all of these need to be scanned and then uploaded
to this web site ... a monumental job, and one day it will have
to be done!! ... in the meantime, when you are looking at these
albumns, you will see that some are not complete or there is
a note to that effect ... can't do much about it, but one day
I will start the scanning!! |
