adam at thoughts and sox recently advertised some 1960 dodgers available for trade. vintage for vintage. i sent a couple of red sox - a 1962 somebody and a 1968 league leader card (featuring the pride of santa maria, jim lonborg). adam sent me these beauties:
charlie neal.
neal hit 2 homeruns in game 2 of the 1959 world series, and batted .370 for the series. the dodgers, of course, won the championship, as shown on
this card.
the champs celebrate. i don't know who is getting doused with booze - no dodger is listed as 33 at baseball-almanac but it could be joe becker, one of the coaches. anyone know for sure?
charlie neal.
this card.
thanks adam. let me know if you have more dodgers to unload for sox!
