1969 about this time of year I was in the Pharmacy in my town I had not purchased any cards since the school year had ended back in June but the counter guy told me and my friend that this was the Mantle series so I was all in with my quarter allowance. We both pulled one and my neighbor the Met fan traded me his for a Tommie Agee. And as the miracle of 1969 unfolded every kid in my class said I got the short end of the deal. Tough being a Yankee fan when I was a kid but it built character...lol
