I purchased the 1922 W573 Sisler simply because I wanted a card from his .420 year (in Strat-o-matic, as a kid, you either wanted that card of Sisler or Gehrig's 1927 year--.373, 47 HR's, 118 extra-base hits--as your first baseman).
Was quite a year for George, with, as I recall off the top of my head, 44 doubles, 16 triples, 8 Hr's and 51 stolen bases! It really doesn't make any difference to me that its a strip card, as opposed to American Caramel or whatever.
Thumbs up to stippers,
Larry
