Somewhere I have one of those MCI Ambassadors of Baseball cards signed by him, and a color postcard signed by Johnny Vander Meer. They came aboard USS Independence CV-62 when I served on that aircraft carrier. I met Bob Feller, Johnny Vander Meer, Graig Nettles, Rick Waite, and Bert Campaneris. They were all very, very nice gentlemen, and didn't charge any money for anything. You could also have someone take photos with them if you had a camera. Bob Feller had a stack of those MCI cards pre-signed. We talked a few minutes and shook hands. Johnny Vander Meer personalized a postcard for me, and also wrote "back-to-back no-hitters, 1938". Super nice guy. Nettles, Waite and Campaneris signed a USS Independence photo. I think this was one of our in-ports while the ship was tied up at Naval Air Station North Island in San Diego.
