Thanks to Travis Wise for a great transaction....

I am efforting to become a no-wallet guy. I have found that my aging behind is large enough without a billfold in my back pocket. I wanted a distinct money clip and Travis helped me find one that really fit the bill. It is a premium that was given to members of the 1959 California League All Star team. This one belonged to Nolan Campbell, a utility infielder who played 12 years in the minors who also became a manager. Mr. Campbell holds the distinction to be the first manager to be thrown out of a professional baseball game by a female umpire. He played all nine positions on the field in a single game twice in his career. He was born in Weedpatch, Cali, which is also pretty cool. Cost me $30 which I think is a bargain.
