Stan the Man and The Hammer

Last week, the mailman brought me a Stan Musial autograph. This week, he brought me the 1959 issue of Sports Review Baseball magazine featuring an utterly spectacular cover photograph of Hank Aaron and Stan Musial. It's hard to think of two players I love more and it's hard to imagine anyone capturing a better image of the two men. I wrote about both men for Talking Chop last week.

With several vintage Musial cards, an autograph and this magazine, I suppose that will close the door on my Musial acquisitions for the time being.

It's Mine! All Mine!

I don't have the words to describe just how happy I am that I finally own this card. Every Braves or Yankees or baseball fan should get one of these.
