Nice T217 Mono cards Ed. I like how the Knapp card is actually a misspelling of the player's name...he was actually Gene Krapp.

Here is how a sportswriter was thoughtfully able to work Krapp's name into an article, and get it past his editor, during his playing career (found this in Krapp's SABR writeup):

“Krapp squeezed his way out of a tight hole when, with the bases full, he induced Rollie Zeider to line to Bill Wambsganss for an inning-ending double play.”

Brian (good luck with the sales)
