billy ripkin was not the first ...

So much written and said about the Billy Ripkin FF card. How did they keep THIS quite ?
This card was recently discovered in 2008 ... appearently pulled from the original 1961 topps negative. (was found in the Rube Vault archives)

Kind of off track, but I own copies of both Cal Jr.'s and Sr's senior year High School yearbooks and in both (25 years apart), you can see the same misspellings....

Really? And you only noticed that Ripken was misspelled? Not to be too picky, but spell check only takes a second. Sorry, now back to our regular scheduled program.

I'd completely forgotten about that one! He had a**hole written on his bat!
I have a gret deal of respect for players collectors like 1989fleerRipkencollector ... the mispelling and reference was not intended as disrespect.
thanks for understanding.

I liked the two first cards better, but now I think I like the Cal card that jeff posted.
