Default Not really vintage but--where have you gone Pancho Herrera?

Posted By: Anonymous

Tony Horton (his parents actually)lived down the street from me in the 60's and 70's- I was their paperboy in Santa Monica. He had some sort of nervous breakdown and never played ball again. Real nice guy, I remember him hanging around the house all the time- I guess the stress was just too much of him. I know he has a '70 Kellogg's card, and he isn't in the '71 Topps set. By 1980 things hadn't changed, and then I left the neighborhood.
Rick Monday was about a half a block away, for a rapid 11 year old baseball fan this was the best paper route in town.
Pancho is THE tough card in the '58 set, if you're looking for the "Herrer" error. I looked for years and finally got one that is fairly off center, and have yet to find one since, better or worse.
