Thanks Jeff, as that's also helpful info on the Yount and Molitor 3,000th dugout cards.

I couldn't help but get a chuckle at the Mears description of the Yount dugout card. Yount is "the most revered player in Brewers history" yet the team unceremoniously tossed the 3,000th hit dugout card as yesterday's trash. If not for a clubhouse worker that recognized the historic nature of this game and pulling the crumpled dugout card from a trash can, it would have been lost for eternity...
Today, the same dugout card would be immediately sold for big bucks after a MLB hologram was affixed to it.

As I previously mentioned, I really like your Brett 3,000th hit cards & think it's cool that you added them to your collection. Congrats!
