One of my treasured items.My father in 1965 finally took a vacation out to S.F. Knew next to nothing about baseball.But he did know the likeness of Stengel from the newspapers.He is in the looby of Jack Tarr Hotel which happened to be Mets hotel when they played on the coast.He sees Stengel come into the lobby in a.m. Father runs to service desk,buys a postcard of the hotel,approaches Stengel and asks for an autograph for "his son." Stengel says why sure.And what team does your son like? Phillies,was the reply.Stengel writes ,Join the Mets,david.Then coaches and players begin filtering in.Stengel starts handing pen and postcard to each of them .i end up with a postcard that has Berra,Spahn,Coleman,Bearnarth,etc. on it.Loved that postcard.
