You all might wonder how a collector could get excited over having acquired this rough condition PC. Well, I'm super excited! You see, Pete Runnels was my favorite player when I was a kid and Runnels played for the Senators. Hence, I am a Runnels collector, and I've been looking to acquire an example of this PC for 25+ years! Most of the dozen PCs in this set are not very difficult to find, but the Runnels PC is quite scarce. Of course, if anyone has a nicer example they are willing to part with, I'm all ears. Now then, if I could only find a complete Jello box with Runnels and a 1953-54 Briggs Meats 2-card panel with Runnels & Porterfield!
