I like Exhibit cards. I think it took a while for most of us to appreciate them...

Here are 4 of mine. I like Southworth because of his connection with the Cardinals. I'm glad he finally made it to the Hall. The Schang card has always puzzled me, it has that sticker on there, anyone recognize that sticker? Ever see one like it on anything else?? I have a Pat Collins catcher's mitt, old as the hills, belonged to a couisin of mine. Not many choices out there if you're looking for something of Collins. And then there's Catfish.




Now these 2 Exhibits took me some time to acquire. I am a Cardinals fan, and wanted something of Rothrock's. I eventually got his autograph. And I think I have a Diamond Matchbook of him. Then I finally got this Exhibit. I think his other Exhibit has him on a 4in1 with the Red Sox. Think I have that... And then the 4in1 that shows Len Koenecke... what a story goes with him. He was pounding the ball, but his career came to a sudden end. There aren't many collecting options for him, either.
