Lou Brock (1939-2020)



I stopped in to Randy's Sportscards in nearby Quakertown, and was pleasantly surprised to discover a few affordably priced Hall of Fame autographs for sale.

The first was this blue pen signature on an old Topps baseball card of Cardinal's great, Lou Brock.  Brock played for almost 20 years, and famously broke Ty Cobb's stolen base record that had lasted for decades.  It isn't a great signature (you can barely see it in this photo from my camera), but I'm happy to add another one to my collection at a reasonable price!

Update: Mr. Brock passed away in 2020
