One has to wonder why he was giving the Red Sox $50.26, it seems like they should have been sending him money. It's kind of neat that both of our checks are from Boston athletes and they are both from 1982. On a completely different note, did the stickers ever arrive?Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043468725408104535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8730371508291366937.post-90935066884533393992016-06-09T05:39:29.752-07:002016-06-09T05:39:29.752-07:00Johnny Pesky.

He doesn't have a lot of signed cards out there, which is kind of good and bad at the same time. The good being that in this day and age it's kind of nice to have someone who doesn't have a signed card in every single product that is released, the bad being of course being that because his signature isn't all over the place it drives up the value on the few that are out there.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043468725408104535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8730371508291366937.post-63923410700228726452016-06-09T05:25:09.929-07:002016-06-09T05:25:09.929-07:00He definitely was an innovator, being considered t...He definitely was an innovator, being considered the first of the flashy point guards.
