A year of Lou Brock

I guess a couple things:

It only goes up to 115 and he stole 118.

He didn't steal first base until game #7.

Correct?

Yes. He was on a pace to steal -0- bases through the first week, then the team underestimated him......

Moving into 1975 is this card, part of a set honoring James "Cool Papa" Bell. I have one that is apparently signed by Mr. Bell. Also interesting in a perverse sort of way is the comment by Bell about the reason the Cubs traded Lou Brock away.

The Phillies must have had the same "problem" in 1966 that the Cubs had in 1964 when they traded Fergie Jenkins and Adolfo Phillips to the Cubs. Perverse is right.

1975 Hostess single. I am not sure why the back scans shorter, it is the same card. This is cut from the 3 card panel.

1975 Hostess Twinkies complete with vintage Twinkie juice. I find it interesting that when uncut as these are, there are significant differences in size, and location of the printing on the back.
