Default My question answered by George Sisler.

Back in the '60's I bought a HOF Exhbit Card of George Sisler from The Card Collector's Co. Probably cost me a quarter. I decided to send it to Mr. Sisler to be autographed. I also asked what was his biggest thrill in baseball. He was kind enough to respond and I'll bet the answer surprises you.

You will also notice that the top of my notebook paper with my letter has been cut off. I'm sure I did this because I was just goofy or insecure about my handwriting or grammar. Remember there was no Spell Check back then. In a nostalgic way, I really regret not being able to see my 12-13 year old penmanship. More importantly, as a collector there would be a date on top. What a knucklehead!
