Bill was 18-19 years old in 1971, and was either a freshman or a sophomore in college. Where does a young kid like that get $320 to buy a baseball card? And I think he bought a Wagner around that time too. That was a lot of money back then. I am the same age as Bill, and as a college freshman I had enough money in my pocket to buy a record album and a hot lunch at the school cafeteria.
