Ed Kirkpatrick 1/1 1 month (1970 Topps)

It's always pretty special to have an Ed Kirkpatrick success. I remember Ed when he was with the Royals in the early '70's, and I used to love how the ball jumped off his bat. He was one of the Royal's most consistent players in their first year in existence, and a fine ball player. He was also a pretty cool guy. I remember meeting him at the Astrodome in the mid '70's, when he was with the Pirates, and he was really cool with fans. Still is...despite the 1981 auto accident that left him in a wheelchair for life. That's why if you have a TTM success with him the sig is shaky. Spanky was quite the battler on the field, as I recall, and in life, as well.
Just thought you guys might like to know.
