I agree that it is most cool because it reminds us of the role that Indians once played in the game. I also wanted the card because of something I remember from my childhood. I was about 10 back in 1969 when my dad took me to Forbes Field for the 60th anniversary of the ball park. The program that night was filled with pictures and slogans from the early days, including one slogan that read "Put in Yellowhorse!" I asked my father, who was a Pirate fan since the early twenties, what that meant and he said "Oh, he was a relief pitcher." I have always remembered that old Pirate chant and my father's recollection of his role on the staff, so I was very pleased to discover that the Chief made it into the Zeenuts as well as on to an exhibit.
