| Message | I wanted to share one fond memory of Dick Allen from my childhood.
I collect baseball cards of Dick Allen and a couple other favorite players. Back as a young boy in 1975 I remember opening a pack of Topps Baseball cards from that year with a kid from my street. He had a Dick Allen in his pack and I had Henry Aaron in mine. We traded straight up.
To this day that 1975 Topps card of Dick Allen is one of my all time favorites. Granted, it is not worth nearly the amount that Aaron's is, but I don't care about the price. The memories are priceless. |
