I think you can add Campanella to the long list of under valued vintage stars. But I think that has more to do with the fact that it takes more than just being a great player to become a hobby icon. Ruth, Cobb, Mantle, Jackie, etc. all had other qualities that made them larger than the game in some respects.
I found a new appreciation for Campanella (and many other Dodgers) after reading the "Boys of Summer" by Roger Kahn. Here's my only Campanella card. I think it's extra fun because Bowman credited him with 198 RBIs in 1951. Which is 90 more than he actually had ![]() camp2.JPG |
