[39special]

My most cherished card is my '58 Furillo.My dad bought it for me at a show when I was 12.At the time I was buying packs,trying to build sets.I didn't have any intrest in older cards.Furillo lived in the area I did,and my dad would tell me stories about him,which sparked some intrest.
Later that month we were driving home from somewhere and my dad said we see someone that wanted to meet me.I had know idea who.We pulled into a driveway,and Furillo came out of his house.He came over shook my hand and we stared to talk.After about 10 mins.my dad puuled the card out of his pocket,handed to me,Carl asked if I wanted him to sign it.
He signed it,and told me to stop by anytime.
From that moment one I was hooked.After that I would stop by and visit Carl a couple times a month.He would sign other things for me over the years,but the '58 is my favorite.
My dad has been gone for a long time,and I miss him alot.Everytime I look at that card,it brings back great memories.
When I go,that card is going with me!
