Over 10 years ago, I was the high bidder in a lot of 20 or so of these, since a good # of the players represented were Orioles (which I will share down the road):

Bill,
Thanks for the reminder; time definitely flies Think the Frank nameplate is very nice. Also, I like the bronze bust of Frank as well. It's sad that so many of these great players are not around any longer.
