Significance of autograph (valuable):
Whitey Herzog was quite a character. Though he was an average player at best, his contributions to baseball were far greater from the managerial side which led him to say, “Baseball has been good to me since I quit trying to play it.†He eventually was elected to baseball’s Hall of Fame. Note: He signed the front and back of the card.
As for Luis Aparico, he was a major force for the White Sox go-go teams of 1950’s and a key player for the Orioles teams in the mid 1960’s. A suburb shortstop and base stealer.
As for the card within this set? It is another example why this set is so unique.
