Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>Before you gents start trashing me with what year it is - 2008, remember my bud has been out of cards for 25 years so he hands me a xerox of the M131's instead of emailing me scans. Here is a bastardized preview of the cards raw. That trimmed up unknown looking card is all that is left of a Baltimore News Schedule card! Yikes! That one hurt.<p><br /><br /><img src=http://mywebpages.comcast.net/bandache/Bu002.jpg><br /><img src=http://mywebpages.comcast.net/bandache/Bu003.jpg>

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>McGraw is my all time favorite in this issue as he actually once played for the Baltimore Orioles. That is a good one to have! Dano

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>Those are sweet Dan. I'm sure there would be plenty of folks clawing at each other for the chance at those. At least some of us get to live through other's around here <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>dan mckee</b><p>If I had $1 for everytime I mixed up Lajoie and Speaker, I would be retired! I transpose those 2 always! God do I need a Doctor! Sorry guys, you are correct, 3 Speakers not Lajoies. I am losing it.

Posted By: <b>Rob Dewolf</b><p>I knew the three Lajoies had to be too good to be true.<br /><br />Major buzz-kill.
