You all have great Willie tribute pieces!
Always a sad day to say goodbye to a true icon of the game, cards and humanity! My selection is limited, but the 1954 Bowman is my favorite of all Willie Cards. He holds the center position in my little 11 card row of postwar HOF cards above the office TV. Bob |

Last hit, RBI and run of his career, giving the Mets the lead in the 12th inning of game 2 of the 1973 World Series (which they won).

Although I consider Ruth the GOAT, I wouldn’t argue with someone who thought Mays was. Here is a mid 1960s gamer acquired directly from a Forbes Field batboy.

The Sports Section of today's Washington Post print edition has a beautiful, one-full-page display in color of all of Willie's Topps cards along with Willie's basic stats for each prior season. The online version, unfortunately, doesn't display the cards & stats in the same fashion, but I still think collectors will enjoy seeing this, so here is the link to it: https://wapo.st/3z9OEnz
