Comments: In February, 2000 I purchased a beautiful high-end rookie card of Harmon, a 1955 Topps PSA 8, from seller Dale Moody/Atlanta Sports Cards. I loved the card. But in Feb, 2004 I decided to go with Newhouser to represent the 1955 Topps issue and needed to find a new type card for Killebrew. In November, 2007 I chose this 1969 Topps Decals issue and won this PSA 10 on eBay.
