Here are both 34 Butterfingers (American) versions -1 X and 2 X's. They are both the same size in real life (don't ask me how they are different sizes when I scanned them on the same scanner).

as highly rated as jimmy was, he was still underrated.
it is also hard to describe how underpaid jimmy and other members of his championship teams were.
truly sad that the money he was worth just never flowed to his wallet.

one of my favorite players of all time.

I wish the autograph was real. It is secretarial.

Love the Diamond Dust.

I've mentioned this before but Foxx was my Dads' favorite player. One of Dad's jobs in junior high and high school was to care for the field at Whittington Park in Hot Springs where the Ray Doan Baseball School was held each February and March.

Foxx was often an instructor there before heading to Florida. Dad said he was a wonderful gentleman and would pitch to the young workers and hit to them for fielding practice after the school let our each day. One year as he was leaving he gave Dad a Heinie Manush glove as a gift.
