And it's nice if I want to talk about a certain stat.<br /><br />I'm glad you like them. I've been curious lately what people thought about the scans, especially the size.<br /><br />Is the size good?

(He was a Dodger in all his '88 cards, but I can't recall one game in which I saw him in a Dodger uniform).<br /><br />"Scrap Iron" is always a Pirate to me, as he played a prominent role in the 1979 World Series that I watched every single game of. And I picture him as an Astro, too, because he was in the postseason a couple of times with the Astros.<br /><br />Now, if you ask someone a little older, they'll tell you Garner was an Oakland A, as he came up with the team and took over for Dick Green.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535474485736373926.post-71155323737871882402009-05-28T20:54:49.490-04:002009-05-28T20:54:49.490-04:00Awesome scans I like how you included the backs.Awesome scans I like how you included the backs.Jeffrey Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079647714239923829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535474485736373926.post-4777691401041372902009-05-28T20:30:05.171-04:002009-05-28T20:30:05.171-04:00It looks like it says E-4, which would be an odd t...It looks like it says E-4, which would be an odd thing for a second baseman to have on his hat. Could be why he was made an outfielder later though.hiflewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07128126188366882765noreply@blogger.com
