Re: By the side of the road...(NCR)

Hey thanks a lot Paul. That's what I was wanting to know. I realized the card is practically worthless in it's condition, which is worse even that it appears on the scan because it is all bent up and warped.

It is card #3. Upon closer inpsection, it does say "(c)T.C.G." which I guess is Topps Card Company.

Great trivia fare. Adcock is one of only 14 guys to hit 4 HR in a game, he ended the strangest major league game ever played in very strange fashion, I tried to tell the story at a poker game recently and got mixed up on the details, and then I found his 43 year old Topps baseball card on the sidewalk a block from my home which motivated me to look up the details. I feel like that guy in "The Marrying Man" - what are the odds? vbg

Thanks,

Cinch
