Does anybody have a similar history with the same card coming in and out of their collections over the course of a decade?
I have a few which I have owned more than once...

I just crack up everytime I see that Melchoir card. What exactly is he doing as he galavants through the outfield? Is that his signature jog to the dugout or is he just merrily singing a song as he dances around the field?? Perhaps a bee just stung him in the ass?? Maybe he was showing off his home run trot?? Can anyone else chime in on why Mr. Melchoir is traipsing around the field?

Anyway, I love that card and one day I will own it. It will sit in a prominent place so it can bring me joy and curiosity on a daily basis. Thanks for sharing Leon.

Haha! That's great! Any idea how many different cards possess the traipsing Melchoir? What option is least expensive? Thank you for any input.

Default Just call him Tiny Tim Melchoir

Sadly, only the D311 Pacific Coast Biscuit set has Melchoir tiptoeing through the tulips image. That 1911 Obak has to be one of my favorite fantasy baseball cards though.
