Card Date: April 23, 1955
Autograph(s): George Kell (D) – HOF Minnie Minoso (D); Walt Dropo (D).
Grade Value: V

Significance of autograph (a treasure):
On this historic day the White Sox tied the modern MLB record for most runs in a game, 29 later to be broken by the Texas Rangers (30).  As for the signatures? Well take Minnie Minoso, the Cuban Comet, he played in five different decades even got a hit after he turned 50, what a player and career.  George Kell was a 10-time All Star, a famous announcer and made it to Cooperstown. And as for Walt Dropo, not only did he appear in this game but also in first 29-run game (Red Sox verses St. Louis Browns).  Three careers that couldn’t be more different.
