Hall of Famer Jim "Catfish" Hunter was an eight-time All-star and a member of five World Championship teams. He was one of the first big money free agents when he left Oakland and signed with the Yankees at the end of 1974. Bob Dylan wrote a song about him. He was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease at the age of 52 and passed away from it a year later.  As of this posting I have 162 different Beckett recognized cards of Catfish including these nine.

1976 SSPC Promos #2 Jim Hunter (A promo card for SSPC's first and only major set.)
1993 Nabisco All-Star Autographs #3 Catfish Hunter (I got this card by sending in for a complete set of autographed cards from the back of a Ritz crackers box. I actually got two of these as Don Drysdale had passed away during the promotion and they substituted his card with an extra Hunter auto. I still love Ritz crackers with soup, peanut butter, jam, cheese or ice cream. The only time I couldn't eat them was when I was a kid and my Mom made a "mock apple pie" using crackers instead of apples from a recipe on the back of the Ritz box. Not good. <IMG SRC="https://www.beckett.com/forums/images/smilies/dodgy.gif">)
