You chose....

Wisely.

Unless you just really really want a Koji Uehara Topps206 short print. I've got four of 'em  now. Here's some nice un-priced scans of the front and back of the Play ball card.


Dig that crazy Sox logo.


This guy played for 14 seasons and I've never heard of him before. Also his name is Eric, not Don. And his nickname was Boob. Yes Boob. Apparently Boob McNutt was a popular Rube Goldberg cartoon back in the day, popular enough to get nicknamed after it at least. It's not very well known anymore though, which is why I hope no one sees that I have Boob McNutt in my Google search history. That's a mighty interesting image search, I'll tell you.

This card is in not overly terrible condition for being 71 years old. The slight paper loss on the back is a shame, but I've seen worse. And to think, I got it for the price of six 2009 Topps206 cards. Makes ya think.

Choose one

You have three dollars. 

Will you take this 1939 Play Ball card of Don McNair?


Or what's behind door number 1?


Choose wisely.
