Started this as a physical project with the Topps Presidential Pastime set.

I never did finish it as a physical collection (probably ended up with around half of the 42 cards in the set (I no longer have them), but that's why the former White Sox Fan In Chief Barack Obama is represented, ironically, with the Cubs' trophy =;)

Didn't feel any of the Topps Now cards featuring Trump with baseball celebrations, and we shall see if I'll be swapping out the Biden card once cards of him welcoming teams to the White House, or throwing out first pitches start coming out.

September 27th of 2024 will mark the 70th anniversary of the debut of the historic late night TV franchise on NBC, The Tonight Show.

Considering licensing rights, dealing with estates, production companies, studios, etc, this is a project that can not be produced, but fun to think about.

Being generous this has to be done in series, with all sorts of inserts, autos and even memorabilia (how much would a swath of a shown worn Carson jacket fetch!).

Personally, the bulk, on The Tonight Show proper would be;
Steve Allen/Jack Parr The Early Years
Johnny Carson I The NYC early days
Johnny Carson II The move to LA through this final show
Jay Leno Both tenures in the same series
Conan O’Brien
Jimmy Fallon

I’d also run a dedicated 7th series to the iconic shows that followed The Tonight Show. Notably Tomorrow with Tom Snyder, and the Late Night series with David Letterman, Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers.

As well as an insert touch on various other similar gabfest format shows NBC produced for overnight time slots over the years, such as Later and Last Call.

While the show hosts would dominate the set, cards would feature prominent guests, guest hosts, unique segments, memorable moments and characters done on the show, etc.

Bestowed frequently in recognition of historical significant achievements.

Retired numbers located along the grandstand walls

There are many players with lengthy careers with a single franchise, and plenty of those have been with franchises that changed uniform styles, colors, or both as frequent as styles tend to change.

But there are a few long tenured players whom seemingly spent their entire time with a franchise that made only one or two different changes.

And sometimes, whether its just before the sweeping change to a long standing uniform style happens, or the player's last year or so was played after the franchise made a change from a long standing style; it does seem weird to see the player in a different style, even if its all with the same franchise you'd associate the player with.

Note: This does not include any Retro/Turn Back The Clock/Tribute sort of one time only or an alternative style for specific home games.

As well as returning players as managers, coaches, Spring Training Instructors, etc.

Or, as often was the case, a card depicting a retired player in an Old-Timers Day, or like event, clad in the team's uniform style of the day.

Ballots formed from panel of experts' selection of 100 greatest players for the 20th Century.

Revealed prior to the 1999 All-Star Game in Boston 7/13.

Fans voted for the top two players for the infield positions and catcher, as well as the top nine outfielders and top six pitchers. A Blue Ribbon Panel added five more that didn't garner initial votes.

The team was revealed in a ceremony prior to Game 2 of the 1999 World Series in Atlanta on 10/24.

Retired Numbers are displayed on the wall of outfield stands.

Through the Class of 2020, there have been 2 players that have been inducted under the primary position of Designated Hitter

Through the Class of 2020, there have been 19 players that have been inducted under the primary position of Catcher
