Hit the jackpot! Got the GEM I wanted! Welcome Andy Van Slyke!

Hello all you card collecting crusaders,

I know you guys have been teasing me about this. Finally, good old jtcards was offering one on his auctions, so I couldn't resist. Sure, I have 4 raw copies of this card in Mint or NM/M, but I wanted a perfect copy to display, show and tell from time to time. I usually don't buy PSA 10, but this was cheap and visibly better than the cherry picked copies I have---now that's saying a lot.

If it had not been for injuries and he kept up the pace like he started in the wonderful 1992 season, he surely would have been known as one of the best center fielders of all time. His hitting got better with age, but his body was like glass. A great player, a great personality off the field.
