That is an amazing story. I have had some very nice gestures from some players, like full letters written back, but nothing to the magnitude of a scrapbook.

Great, great stuff!
I just did a quick Google search on Hank and learned that he passed away just two short years after sending that scrapbook (in 2001 at age 84). Apparently, he never had any children of his own. I also found it interesting that he was married to his second wife, Esther from 1940 until her death in 1979 and then re-married his first wife; Jeanne.

Thank you all for your appreciation of this great item. Truthfully I shared it with you because you guys are the only ones I know who would truly appreciate it. No one in my circle would have any interest or even know who Hank was. Up to now it's been like a secret I always felt I needed to share. Another reason I love this board (and not to be too sappy, you guys too). Thanks again!
