Sometimes looks are the only things that attract my attention. Was the case with the Hogue. I took a gamble on it - was described as "very good" and this is what showed up in the mail. Colors on this card, and a few others in this series (thinking about Elmer Valo and others) are pretty awesome, at least to me. I've always liked it and happy I have clean example now (as we know many from this era are diiiiiiiiirty).
And the lesser discussed Minoso rookie. Dude was a beast hitter right through the 50s. Found it in great shape so I snagged it.
