I think that it would be nice to make the pre-'64 '94's again. For me that's the easiest choice.
I also would like them to make the OM, three screw Blackhawks again.

Alright, I read all the other posts up to now and I would like to give my input. There is a definite advantage to buying from an out of state party, especially with a good price.
