Description

The listing, 1969 Topps Deckle Edge RICHIE ALLEN has ended.

This is a 1969 Topps Deckle Edge card for slugger Richie Allen of the Philadelphia Phillies.

Richie Allen (also played as ***** Allen) narrowly missed making the Hall of Fame, surviving 15 years on the ballot (the maximum allowed) and may yet be inducted by the Veteran's Committee. And why not? A 7-time All Star who mashed 351 home runs in just 15 MLB seasons, Allen led the league in home runs twice, RBIs once, and OPS an amazing 4 times (his career OPS of .912 is to be marveled at). He won the Rookie of the Year Award in 1964, and an MVP Award in 1972.

Thanks for looking, happy bidding, and good luck!

Guy earned it. The HOF for years looked at career totals as opposed to annual averages, which negatively impacts superstar players who played shorter careers. Not a Yankees fan, but a stellar example is Don Mattingly, who had the .307 career average and 9 Gold Gloves in only 12 eligible seasons. Bill Madlock was shafted for the same reason; it's a shame that a guy with 4 batting titles and a .305 average would be eliminated after only ONE ballot
