As a New Yorker, I always hated the Sox, but then my dad (a Navy man) regaled me with stories about Ted's service to our country and BOOM!! I started to instantly love the man. Happy birthday, Captain.

Awaiting arrival of this key card for my 1957 set...

Mark,
That will never fit in a Card Saver, so PSA won't grade it! That's great. What is it? A poster, or maybe a painting?

Ted was at the "head" of his class. What a player ! Imagine his stats without the war years.
