Meanwhile I've acquired an ever greater appreciation and interest in knuckleball pitchers and base stealers over the last ten years or so. Since my baseball card collection is limited to the 1954, 1955, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963 and 1965 years, I may well need to expand it to include a sheet or two of some of the great knuckleball pitchers and base stealers who played mainly outside those years - Phil Niekro, Joe Niekro, Charlie Hough, Tom Candiotti, Tim Wakefield, R.A. Dickie, Lou Brock, Joe Morgan, Willie Wilson, Bert Campaneris, Tim Raines, Ricky Henderson, Otis Nixon, Vince Coleman, Kenny Lofton, Marquis Grissom, José Reyes, etc.

Legendary knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm and base stealers Maury Wills and Luis Aparicio have of course many cards from that 1954-65 period that's been my focus.
