A 1971 ALCS Game 3 stub has been terribly elusive. I had given up on my goal of collecting a stub from all of the post season games of the 1971 season. Game 3 was the last stub I needed to complete my goal. Then I found this one almost accidentally. It is the first example of this stub I have ever seen. Reggie hit the first two post season homers of his career in this game. Thanks for indulging me. Its hard to believe an $11 pickup could make me so happy. I think my wife may be right about my need for therapy.
I totally get it, Mike. There are 3 crappy pinbacks I have been searching for for 20 years. If I ever find them, I figure I'll be the only bidder. If I find them...
