Your Melillo looks better than most of the "modified" cards I've seen. With the thin black lines added, it reminds me of Bowmans from 1950-52. When I was a kid in the early 1970s, hair styles were changing, and kids routinely added afros and sideburns to the players pictured on cards. A few years back, I picked up a lot of "colorized" Remars ...

I just realized that this card is reminiscent of a compartmentalized paint by numbers painting. And I kinda like the look of a well done paint by number painting.

Could possibly get more than a similarly conditioned Melillo if you auctioned/sold it off. I would pay a little more for it (hint, hint).

I plan on keeping it because I really do like it, but always good to know there are others out there that appreciate it as well.

Absolutely!

An outlined version would make a spectacular reprint set.
