Blow Out the Candles December 30

Dodger great, Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax turns 76 today.
1964 Topps #200




March 4, 1963

April 12, 1964





If you want a good read about Sandy Koufax I highly recommend this one. It alternates biography with an inning by inning account of Sandy's perfect game against the Cubs on Sept. 9, 1965.







Last week was brother Frank's birthday, today it's Lester Patrick, born in 1883. Like his brother, Lester is also a member of the Hall of Fame.

Half of the pre-fab four, The Monkees, share a birthday today.

Michael Nesmith turns 69




Davy Jones turns 66






A Happy 3rd Birthday to a really great card blog Wrigley Wax.  Even if you're not a Cubs fan like we are, check it out.  You'll enjoy it.
