  As part of Hall of Fame Classic Weekend, the Museum celebrates the history of baseball cards with a new exhibit opening: Shoebox Treasures. The exhibit, which will open to the public at noon on May 25, will host a special ribbon cutting ceremony that morning. Shoebox Treasures features more than 700 square feet of space on the Museum's third floor, will touch on the history and production of the cards as well as the 1980s boom that turned a child's hobby into a multi-million dollar industry. Shoebox Treasures will feature more than 2,000 cards on display in vertical drawers that will allow visitors to explore the Museum's collection. Additionally, visitors can interact with the cards through a classic "bicycle spokes" interactive and also have the chance to make their own virtual baseball cards. Shoebox Treasures will be a major part of the continuing Museum lineup and is included with Hall of Fame admission.
  On Sunday, May 26, the Museum transitions to summer hours of 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week through the day before Labor Day.
