I got this card at a show maybe 6 months ago, with a few others. Guy was selling some really nice raw 56s, and this one in particular was a standout. When SGC dropped their price recently I figured I would send this in and it should get a 7 maybe even an 8. Well it got an 8 and looks terrific in a slab. As many people here already know, Sammy White was a solid catcher for the Red Sox in the 1950s who opened bowling alleys after retirement. They used to film candlepin bowling from his Brighton alley back in the 70s and 80s. Those Saturday shows hosted by Don Gillis were hugely popular. The bowling alley also had an horrific quadrouple murder back in 1980, but came back and stayed in business until 1986 before it got bought out by an Acura Dealership that is there to this day. My mom used to take me and my sis there back in those days, although I recall her not letting us go for a while in 1980 and 81. Anyhow, I have never been nutty about 56s, but this one has me changing my tune. .
