Who is this? Bobby Richardson, a former New York Yankees infielder
What is this? An autograph card from the 2004 Upper Deck Yankees Classics set
Where'd I get it? I wrote to Bobby Richardson earlier this summer and asked him to sign it.
How much did it cost? 33 cents for the card; 88 cents for postage
Why is this so special? Richardson was a key part of the late 1950s-early 1960s Yankees dynasty. He was an 8-time All-Star, 5-time Gold Glove winner and the MVP of the 1960 World Series. He played in the majors for 12 seasons, amassing 1,400+ hits.
And even with all of those accomplishments, Richardson still signs autographs through the mail. He's got a nice, clear signature that really stands out on the black & white card.
