I have maybe 10 to 15 that I've acquired through care packages or purchased on the cheap at the flea market, but I think the storage aspect is the thing that held me back the most.

I had a run of 15 or so that started in 1989 I think. Rusty Wallace in the Kodiak car on the cover. I ended up giving them away when space became an issue.Commishbobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18069472376708715755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550073840562722051.post-47721628518916209402018-03-23T22:24:26.359-05:002018-03-23T22:24:26.359-05:00The '66 Dodgers home World Series program is a...The '66 Dodgers home World Series program is a classic.

But then I think, I've loved yearbooks forever, but my run of Dodger yearbooks stops at 1985. That's how much they've disappeared from my life.<br /><br />Still I like the IDEA of them.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3550073840562722051.post-4600989689805921422018-03-23T18:48:46.230-05:002018-03-23T18:48:46.230-05:00I have no idea what a gonfalon is, but I feel your...I have no idea what a gonfalon is, but I feel your pain. I had pretty much the exact same thing happen with the NASCAR yearbooks when the pulled them from UMI Publications and gave them to some no-name company. I had a complete collection until that point, but from then on I wasn't able to get them, and still can't. The sad part is that they were still available to the public, but the company producing them was too inept to actually deliver them to the people who bought them...pretty sure they stopped making them in 2010.
