My Mom was a teacher when we were kids. One of the other teachers had a cousin who played for the Mets.

She got my mom a set of Mets 8x10’s. Almost all of them autographed. Personalized.

When my brother moved out of the house, she tossed them after a couple of years.

And what year was this almost complete set of autographed Mets pictures? 1969.

Moms back in the day were nice and they loved us. But sometimes they simply had no clue about what is “important.”

Well, her job was to keep the house tidy for you guys. Also, big time inflation had not hit yet, back in 1969. But I think moms see things differently anyhow.

Cheers.
