Really nice guy; he had some of his own cards in his briefcase and gave me one of his 1969 card. For an 8-year-old baseball fan, that was a brush with greatness. <br /><br />Kind of surprising to hear about his musical and acting talents, knowing that he ended up selling insulation in the 70's. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
