Bobby Shantz

Bobby Shantz was a three-time All-Star who played for seven different teams, including eight years with the Philadelphia A's, where he won the league MVP award in 1952, and four with the Yankees, where he led the league in ERA in 1957.  I sent Shantz the card shown on the right, where he's pictured with three other players from his era, and he was nice enough to sign that and include another card that he signed and inscribed!  Showing no signs of slowing down at 92 years old, his turnaround time was five days.  Above and beyond anything I could have expected, and a very nice addition to my collection.  Thanks, Bobby!
