AmericaJR’s Gloria Rzucidlo reports from the Detroit Institute of Arts for their new exhibit “Play Ball: Baseball at the DIA.” This exhibition commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Detroit Tigers’ 1968 World Series victory with memorabilia, baseball cards and collectibles. Visitors will also experience the extraordinary opportunity to view more than 500 baseball cards known as the “T206 White Border Set.” Miller’s collection of these vintage cards is noted for its rarity and superlative condition, and includes a Joe Doyle “error card” as well as the coveted and rare Honus Wagner card. Another highlight is a special urban landscape by Guatemalan artist Dario Escobar which shows the downtown Detroit skyline.
