I was 16 years old and a huge Cubbie fan and I'd never heard of him until he showed up on the Major League scene. My hero at that time was Ernie Banks and I will always remember him. I had sincerely hoped to get to Wrigley Field someday and hopefully meet him but sadly I waited too long. God bless you Ernie RIP.<br /><br />Dave GreenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3301111177105932342.post-33664899679824374662014-11-03T08:13:20.287-06:002014-11-03T08:13:20.287-06:00Vito is my wife's Uncle, her Grandmother was C...Vito is my wife's Uncle, her Grandmother was Concetta (Valentinetti) Abbate.

The 59 Topps set was my favorite. At one time, back in the late 80's, I started collecting cards again as an adult and I grabbed every 59 Topps (common) card I could get my hands on. I'll keep coming back here often to read all your old blogs and read about those old cards, it'll all still be new to me.M.E.
