Been wanting this one for a decade, but never pulled the trigger until this month.

Not the strongest 9, but am thrilled to round out my mini Kersh PC.

I don't love combo cards, I dislike sticker autographs, and I mostly buy RCs, so this definitely fit.

I just added to my Frank Howard collection.

First card back and front of Frank Howard's final home run hit at RFK stadium and Mike Kekich was the pitcher for the Yankees that Frank hit it off of. Frank found out that a grove pitch was headed his way from Thurman Munson. And Frank obliged and offered his thanks to Thurman as he crossed the plate. This will go nicely with the ticket stubs that I have for this game.

Interesting note on Mike Kekich and Fritz Peterson. It sparked a memory and I remember hearing about this interesting "swap" between players.

The other cards are Franks and the serial numbers follow his jersey numbers while playing for the Senators. #9 before Teddy Ballgame became manager of the Nats and #33 after that.

Now my secret is out. When I chase Frank Howard numbered cards, this is what I look for. I have found a nice collection of card/jersey numbers so far.

I am not so much of a fan of autograph stickers on cards myself, but the serial number pushed the purchase of these items.

Cheers,

B. T.

Edit: One thing I will add is that Panini cards are not on my list. I have one, that is good enough. I want to see Hondo in his full uniforms and not any blocked out (masked) nonsense. I simply hate when that happens. Blecch.....

Love this card in hand even more than I thought I would! What an amazing career.
