I recognized the name as having appeared on a number of these cards, but I wouldn't have guess he was on 5 consecutive. I checked and he saw action in 20 games for the Tribe in 65, 23 in 66 and 31 for the Padres in 69.

His mom was our school nurse at Elliot Elementary in Richfield when I was in grade school in the mid-1960s.

Guess I have yet to look at all of his cards together at once, but it appears that the image on the 67 and 68 cards the same, albeit cropped differently. Then the image on the 66 and 69 are the same with the 69 airbrushed.

Wow, 5 consecutive Rookie Stars has to be a record for one guy.
He never really got out of the starting gate, as his career ended in 1969 with 105 at bats over 3 seasons.

After being awed at this, I had to go get 'em.

Goes well with my 1971 (the Andersons) Rookie Stars - three unrelated players with the same last name on the same rookie card...almost as cool as Bill Davis, the prolific rookie.
