Recognition he has long deserved.<br /><br />I can see how Willie Randolph would be a step down from Mattingly. Actually anything would be a step down from Mattingly. But this is your venue for venerating the man and not mine, so I'll leave that thought at that. <br /><br />BTW,did they make those folders for any year other than 1988?Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681778110046124243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-90202867035325665572011-06-24T10:34:42.209-04:002011-06-24T10:34:42.209-04:00Sean, it's too bad irony is lost on youth, as ...Sean, it's too bad irony is lost on youth, as today you would be so hipster cool rocking the Moseby. Also, truth be told, I spent the latter part of that school year -- for reasons I cannot recall -- sporting the Willie Randolph '88 Topps folder, for which I WAS made fun of for, once, by some idiot Mets fan, high off the largely unrealized potential of his favorite team.mkenny59https://www.blogger.com/profile/05234341530938587397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-4667382175383014032011-06-24T08:50:19.066-04:002011-06-24T08:50:19.066-04:00I had the 1988 Topps school folder of Lloyd Moseby...I had the 1988 Topps school folder of Lloyd Moseby. If memory serves, that was actually the best one left in the bargain bin at Zellers when my Dad let me pick one out.<br /><br />I wish I had had Mattingly, he was my favorite player back then too. My life probably would be a lot different today if I had. You must have been the most popular kid in school with that Mattingly one. Nobody liked the kid with the Lloyd Moseby folder. They must have known it came from the bottom of the bargain bin at Zellers. <br /><br />Anyway, love the Mattingly series, keep 'em coming.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681778110046124243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-74888465272357516992011-06-23T16:33:26.949-04:002011-06-23T16:33:26.949-04:00The Mattingly series is awesome, may you keep it g...The Mattingly series is awesome, may you keep it going forever! <br /><br />Also, I had the 1988 Topps Dave Winfield folder myself growing up. Don't know why I didn't have a Mattingly. They must have been sold out. (Come on, central NJ store in the late 80s, don't you know you should carry way more Mattingly folders than Winfield ones?)Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03687449756017490537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-40210143356374394242011-06-23T12:32:16.540-04:002011-06-23T12:32:16.540-04:00@Ecommerce: Thank you ... for that.

I get most of my information from Wikipedia and back-of-baseball-card cartoons, so I'm at a distinct advantage when it comes to knowing about things.mkenny59https://www.blogger.com/profile/05234341530938587397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20684429.post-50371810279748190392011-06-23T10:52:09.303-04:002011-06-23T10:52:09.303-04:00I've been a Don Mattingly fan my whole life an...I've been a Don Mattingly fan my whole life and never knew he had a brother who played pro football (CFL, apparently).
