Thank you very much, Chuck. I believe that is my card, without pulling it out of the safe deposit box to make sure. Part of its attractiveness to me is that it represents the Yankee's very first World Series championship, was the year that the "House that Ruth Built" came into existence, and was the year of the Babe's highest batting average, .393 (along with 41 homers and a rather astounding .545 on-base percentage, going by memory).

Best always,

Larry
