    Great story. The word 'gorgeous', is used often to describe cards. But I think it fits perfectly for the Don Zimmer 1956 Topps card. Love that image. The clouds/sky looks amazing.

      Agreed! Thanks for watching

    Zimmer had a heck of long life in baseball and it’s heartwarming to know that the great Pee Wee Reese had such a positive impact on Zim.

      Yes a fun tidbit to uncover. Thanks Dan

    the story of Don Zimmer ends with him charging Pedro Martinez who casually dispatches his geriatric toddler body. His final confrontation, a defeat.

    These guys look like they were always having a great time! It extended into the cards which I love that Bowman and Topps decided to use those images for their cards. Great way to connect the cards to their relationship. Another enjoyable cup of coffee, Alex.

    Two cards that belong together. I love the way your collecting mind works, Alex!

    Hi Alex, Congrats on the Zimmer addition. It pairs nicely with Pee Wee not only aesthetically but as we learned today also because of their friendship.
    I love how the announcer subtlety worked shaving into the interview and Pee Wee brings up Gillette razors. So smooth. Haha. That was a common style of adversing in those days.

      Yeah it was a bit of a stretch and kind of bizarre but thats what makes the old commercials so amusing! Thanks Terry

    Love this video Alex! The added depth to a friendship that blossomed when competitiveness or jealousy may have normally taken root is such a great testament to the person Reese was. Thanks for sharing my friend.

      You are right! Nice to casually come across decent human behavior time and again in these old baseball stories.

    Great video Alex! Looked like Zimmer was holding Jackie's bat for that one picture.

      You are correct! Noticed that while I was making it.

    Nice video. I hope Pedro gets a chance to see it. I think the 23-year-old Zimmer would have taken him easily.
