I think the issue with Berra is too many people think WAR is the only thing that matters. They see 59 WAR and that tells them he wasn't a great player. Berra was regarded as a good defensive catcher who got the most out of the Yankees pitchers. The Yankees had Ford and a bunch of good pitchers, but Berra helped them to 14 AL Pennants in 17 years and 10 World Series Championships. His 3 MVPs in addition say he was one of the all time greats.

My that's nice to see. I had a similar one back in 1979 and sold it in 1980. I didn't appreciate the rarity of that card.
