[QUOTE=bwbc917;1575142]Some wonderful cards displayed here. Congrats to their owners. I realize this is a pre-war site, but even so I am amazed there has been no mention of Rocky Colavito. Where are the late 50's and early 60's boomers from Cleveland and Detroit?
My extensively-collected non Hall of Famer player is also a post-war guy. Steve Garvey was my favorite player growing up. Was a complete gentleman and somehow, despite the pedestal I had put him on, didn't disappoint when I met him at the age of 10 in 1975. Met him again about 5 years ago and had the pleasure of talking to him for about 30 minutes...another awesome experience! My black-bordered 1971 Topps is a PSA 9. Best I've been able to get (so far) on the even crueler O-Pee-Chee rookie card is a PSA 6.
Now back to our regularly scheduled pre-war programming...
