A Happy Birthday to Wille Mays

Happy Birthday to Willie Mays who turned 85 today.

I saw him at card shows a lot years ago, but I've never been one to pay for autographs, so I never had a conversation with him.  



I started getting lots of Kellogg's cards in 1973, so I didn't get many of his cards until I was older.  I did get a lot of his 1970's Topps cards as a kid.



I do like having all of the stats on the back of his 1972 Kellogg's card, but he only gets two lines of text for me to read.  

Mays can be seen on some of the Kellogg's advertising and I think I heard to he was on a TV commercial for Kellogg's cards.
