Breakfast: the most important meal of the day?

February 28, 2023

Does anyone else have these?

I have a number of posters that I’ve been hanging in the stairwell to my basement office and came across these 2′ x 3′ jobs that I can only imagine acquiring via sending in box tops from Kelloggs cereals. They’re kind of cool but as the last images are from the early 1990s, they need an update.

They remind me of a fold-out poster of their all-time roster which came with some Mets publication, either a program or yearbook, to mark the teams’ 25th anniversary. But that was almost 40 (!) years ago. According to the UltimateMets.com database, there have been 1,184 players who have appeared in at least one game; I wonder how many Moonlight Grahams — players who were called up but never made it into a game — have there been?

The original measured 22″ x 32″ so can you imagine how big this would have to be now?
