Thanks for sharing about Augie, Larry. I would read the backs of the cards, too. However, I never owned this card. I salute you and your memory, Mr. Donatelli. I well recall my years of watching the Cubs play on WGN TV channel 9. Cubs announcer Jack Brickhouse would have the cameraman introduce each Cub starting the game that afternoon as they were warming up, and afterwards would do the same for each of the umpires. Augie Donatelli's name became very familiar in just a year, and a respected umpire at that. Now I have something all the more important to respect him for.
Thanks again, Larry. Long live ice hockey, as that is what I seem to recall you always posting about!
Regards, Brian Powell
