Well, I'm back in the hospital. Will likely be for another month or so. I will need to go through rehab again. But that's not what I want to talk about today.
No today I want to talk about a three card package that came in from one of the authors of the George Gibson book I covered a while back, Richard Armstrong.
We connected originally over 1994 Collector's Choice. He was working on getting the base, Silver Sig, and Gold Sig sets. I had some base and silver to send him and we've been in touch since.
When he found out I was back in the hospital, he sent out a little "get better soon" package
First is a Larry Walker from that 94 set. This is an extra but definitely counts to the million Expos.
I think this would be a great one to get signed as well.
Next, a 1934 Frank O'Rourke. Isn't it a nice card? He's listed as a member of the Montreal Royals here.
Finally.. This beauty.. It's in rough shape, but if you were over 100 years old I defy you to be in perfect condition.
Russell Ford, emery ball pitcher for the Yankees. This is a Sovereign back variation. This is a card I honestly never thought I'd own. Really, any cards from that era I never thought I'd own..
Thank you Richard!
