I don't have any Mize cards in my collection and, frankly, don't want any. Likewise Terry Moore. Not a fan of Solly Hemus or Enos Slaughter either. You can keep that whole era of Cardinals for the most part, as far as I'm concerned.

Default Johnny Mize

Back in 1982, my booth at the NJ Meadowlands BB card Show was next to Johnny Mize's booth.

We had a great time together, a really great guy. He invited me to his home in Georgia, if I was
in the area. In 1986, I was driving down to Florida, and did visit with Johnny at his home.
really great experience.

Johnny was the first all-time great I ever met. He and a few other Hall of Famers were signing at a show, and his autograph on an 8x10 was either free or a dollar with admission. Heckuva a thrill for an 11-year-old kid.

He should have objected to that awful R312.

He went straight to the ballpark from drag queen story time and forgot to clean up.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Met Mize & Slaughter as a kid. Slaughter was kind, jovial and brimming with personality. Mize was kind and as quiet as Slaughter was talkative. The most immense hand I've ever shaken, yet it was soft. Silly things you remember from childhood.

Default Johnny Mize......

1952 World Series......I remember Casey Stengel bringing in Johnny Mize to pinch-hit. And, Johnny won the game hitting a HR. During this Series, Johnny hit 2 more HR's
to win it for the Yankees. And, would have had a 4th HR, if Carl Furillo had not reached into the Right-Field stands to catch the ball.

Needless to say, Johnny was awarded the Most Valuable Player Award in the 1952 World Series.

LOL, you sound like a guy who hates a certain team. All fine fellows, except Hemus.

Johnny was one of the most friendliest Major League ballplayers that I have ever met.
