Hiya Joe!
good to ‘see’ you.
yeah, Horace was a ‘lovable’ loser, like all the Yankees from 65-73. ‘Hoss’ as Phil Rizutto called him was a decent second baseman. Average hitter and managed to have a 10 year career with The Yankees during a time before Steinbrenner. I wish I kept getting his card like you, otherwise I wouldn’t have had to trade away all my Nolan Ryan & Tom Seaver Cards to get My Yankees from my school yard pals.

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.
