The Ultimate Michigan Football Memorabilia Collectors Guide

It’s in There: The Ultimate Michigan Football Memorabilia Collectors Guide (Interview)

This was fun. Next up for the History Show is my zoom interview with Brian Snider, author and collaborator who produced ‘The Ultimate Michigan Football Memorabilia Collectors Guide‘, a 536+-page clinical-like guide and catalog of 20 categories of University of Michigan memorabilia. If you enjoy history or memorabilia or both (and if you read this site I’m guessing it’s both) you will love this. A perfect gift for a friend or family member – they will not be disappointed.

This video includes Snider’s reasons for creating the guide, the input from other collectors, a discussion of many of the interesting items presented in the tome and much more. Oh, and listen near the end about a Volume II that’s in the works that I think you’ll be interested in. The also video includes many images from the book.

Here’s our interview:

Where to pick up the book:

As discussed in the video the items cataloged in the book gets down and dirty— to stuff like the free “Stadium Guides” they used to pass out before the games (and had the ‘Punt/Counterpunt’ articles)!! Believe it:
