Interestingly enough...looks like this was during his time with the Reds from 1958-1964...and he gets credit for two All Star appearances in 1961 and 1962 because they played two games in both years...who knew...

Great cards Matt. The 1954 set is one of the only Topps set for which I do not have a single variation. I have a couple of the gray backs ( 1-50) for example purposes only, but do not intend to try finish those.

Thanks Al. I'm kind of happy this set doesn't have any varations...I'm doing a raw 59' set and I'm conflicted if I want to pick those up...I may do the Spahn cards because the other ones don't interest me all that much. Anyway, hope everone is enjoying my set build...starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel! Couple big cards to share in the next week or two...

Nice looking bunch of cards there, Matt. Hey, could Sam Mele twist himself into a pretzel while batting, or what? Maybe joking with the photog who wanted a posed shot?

Did you know that on June 24, 2006 he was inducted into the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame? I sure didn't...
