Great Great Grandfather Jimmy Bannon
In 1894 Grand Pop Jimmy was 2nd in the majors with 13 HRs. In 1895 he batted .347 only to be cut the next season ending a 4 year run at .320. Today he'd be getting 30mm a year and kids would be gasping at the prospect of ripping a pack open with his card inside.
Instead, only 1 card ever. I was able to buy mine a few years ago, thank you Leon. And a Whitehead & Hoag pin, WHICH I NEED if anyone has one. By comparison, my son was drafted by the KC Chiefs in 2011, stayed with the organization for barely 2 seasons, never played a regular season down and has 154 unique cards. Crazy.
