Bobby Richardson on Dual Auto Card

Bobby Richardson signed a few cards for me earlier this year, but I wanted to send this one to him to sign as well, as his fellow 1962 World Series Champion, Hector Lopez, had signed it earlier.  Another success, and he sent me a tract, which happens to be the same one they had in the church I grew up in for a long time (as noted in previous post, Bobby Richardson led Mickey Mantle to Christ).  Thanks again, brother!

Mailed: 6-4-18

Turnaround Time: 31 Days

Kevin Maas

Kevin Maas was a can't miss prospect who somehow missed.  He was second in the 1990 AL Rookie of the Year voting after hitting 21 Home Runs.  He followed up with 23 Home Runs in 1991, but less impressive supporting statistics.  He spent two more years with the Yankees, finishing his career with 65 Home Runs (64 with the Yankees and his final one with the Twins) over five MLB seasons.  Thanks, Kevin!
