As a kid, I loved collecting baseball cards. I was talking about cards with my dad one time. He says to me "only card I want would be a 1961 Norm Cash because that's the year he won the batting title ." I found one of those "I fill wantlists" ads in SCD and wrote the guy a letter telling him the card I was looking for. Couple weeks later, I got an envelope from the dealer and he'd sent me the card for free along with a nice note. I have it to my dad and he was very excited and touched at the gift. He kept that card next to his recliner for well over 25 years.
