kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 Looks cool. I have (or had) every yearbook/programs from 1962-Shea's closing and then Citi's inaugural yearbook. I decided to stop collecting when the Ol' Girl shut. I may buy this just because of the 60 for both Mets and me come August.
Marshmallowmilkshake Old-Timey Member Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 I like that they have Bobby V in disguise on there, and Wilmer pulling the heartstrings, Bartolo's homer!. Seems a little short on the 1960s. Is that Ashburn along the bottom? Is that a fold-out cover, with another page of moments? Overall, a beautiful effort!I'm missing 1962, which has now soared far beyond affordability. But have at least one version from every other year.

batmagadanleadoff Old-Timey Member Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 If the Wilpons put that cover out, you wouldn't see the Durocher black cat. Instead, Rey Fraudonez would be on the cover.

G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted May 20, 2022 Author Posted May 20, 2022 Ron Hunt is there (there's a key inside the yearbook). Directly above Endy — half a face at the top.
