Great story, Ted, and thanks as well for posting up your grey backs in this thread. Those were nice to see. :)

Love the 1960s background in this 1950s card.

1952 Topps #195 Orestes Minoso
 

Minnie Minoso

Orestes "Minnie" Minoso. "The Cuban Comet". "Mr. White Sox". Left fielder for the Chicago White Sox in 1951-1957, 1960-1961, 1964, 1976, and 1980. In 1958, first black player to play for the Chicago White Sox. Career .298 batting average. 1,963 hits and 186 home runs in 17 MLB seasons. 9-time All-Star. 3-time Gold Glove. 3-time AL stolen base leader. Chicago White Sox #9 Retired. Also starred for the New York Cubans in the Negro Leagues. First black Cuban in MLB.

Excerpt from Minoso's SABR biography: An episode during the 1954 season in a game against the Yankees illustrates what a novelty Latino players still were in major-league baseball during the mid-1950s. Casey Stengel, always looking for an edge, ordered utility infielder Willie Miranda to curse at Miñoso, hoping to distract him in the batter’s box. Miranda assumed a menacing pose, and in a harsh-sounding tone invited him out to dinner after the game. Miñoso played along, shaking his fist at Miranda and replying in an equally menacing tone that he would be delighted. He stepped back into the box and smacked a game-winning triple.

Maybe his friends called him Joe Hemus. Hey, Joe Hemus

Mr. Hemus

Getting caught up here. Solly for today and the 3 others from previous days.

Long weekend at the lake Dale?

Yeah, went up Friday and came home today, Dave :)
Most likely, going forward, or until the end of the summer, (weather permitting) it will likely be pretty much of the same as far as me posting my cards goes.

Thanks, Dave. :)

We are on Crowe Lake in Marmora Ontario and currently in year 16 at this park.
We face the west so we get some pretty nice sunsets quite often, but the downside, occasionally, is when it is windy out as we can get the full brunt of it at times. But, despite that, we still wouldn't trade it for any other spot in the park as once you are on the east side, with no breeze, the heat, and bugs, can be unbearable at times.

Things are definitely different now that my son doesn't come near as often as he once did but with all the friends we have made over the years, we are still finding it enjoyable for the most part.
What we find we miss the most is taking our son, or taking him and his buddies, tubing, knee boarding and water skiing.
We lived for that, so to speak, as it made for great family fun all being together having fun and staying cool.

First saw these pics in Frank's Net 54 Around The World Thread. Very nice Dale

I noticed in the thread about overrated and underrated sets, a number of people have listed the 1952 Topps set as overrated. I guess you can't make everyone happy which is why they change the card design every year.
