Incredibly undervalued. Career cut short by racism on the front end and the accident on the rear yet still got 3 MVP awards in the golden era, even though he only played for a decade. His percentage of throwing out runners was incredible as well.
I love him because he was so jovial and handled the racism with humor and dignity. I also love him because of his attitude after his accident. He kept that smile and did what he could to help others. He was also a man of faith which I appreciate. If you haven't read "It's Good to be Alive" by Roy Campanella do yourself a favor and check it out. BTW I have a 53 topps for sale in my 53 topps FS post in the BST

Campy needs more respect without a doubt. Rookie year playing for Monterrey. He is first player on left.

Reading threads like this is dangerous: I ended up pulling the trigger on a 1952 Topps after reading it!
![]() Bought the card, not the holder... I've had this one for years:

I agree his cards seem like bargains right now. Here are a couple I picked up recently.
![]() I've also been doing a lot of reading and just finished his bio "Campy", written by Neil Lanctot (incidentally I'm currently reading his history of the negro leagues). Highly recommended. |

Great image! I'm not familar with these postcards... just cruised by some of them on Ebay. All reasonably priced for some great images.
Any idea why so cheap? Just not in high demand? thanks for the tip... I might snag one for my collection too! Jeff |

I not familiar with todays Campy's rookie card cost. I acquired these two 1949 BOWMAN cards of him in 1991 for $100 and $200 (Slate version).
The Slate background version is quite tough to find, and usually sells for $400 - 500 (in Ex condition). . . ![]() TED Z T206 Reference . Last edited by tedzan; 02-21-2021 at 01:46 PM. Reason: Corrected typo. |

Well, I feel I should contribute since it was between this card and my Jennings for my avatar:
