How I got it: Purchased on Ebay
Cost: $5.30 delivered
Why I Bought it: For my HOF Rookie Card Project/Card I have always wanted
My Thoughts: Now this is my kind of card. I have wanted this cards for as long back as I can remember. I picked this guy up for 2.80 with 2.50 shipping and I couldn't be happier. It is pretty beat up, but if you have read my earlier posts, you would know that is how I like my vintage for my personal collection. Yount played 20 seasons all with the Brewers. He won the mvp award two times (1982,1989) and recorded 3,142 hits. His 1731 hits were the most of any player during the 1980's. The first half of Yount's career was played at shortstop before a shoulder injury forced him to the outfield in 1985. Yount was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1999 his first year of elgibility with 77.5% of the vote.
