Thanks for bringing back that memory. I think I'm going to ebay right now and buying one. |
This Griffey is the very first graded card I ever bought once I returned to the hobby, and learned there was such a thing called graded cards. 
I have a half a mind to buy a BGS 9.5 example of Griffey before he's elected into the Hall. I still think he has one of the most beautiful swings I've ever seen. And, I think he achieved his greatness with a combination of natural ability, a lot of hard work..and nothing else.
