TTM Success - John Felske

I knocked another 1987 Topps off of the list with this TTM success from former Phillies manager, John Felske.  I got two cards signed by him, and am pretty sure (without looking it up) that these were his only two cards.
Felske (b. 1942) played in the majors in 1968, 1972 and 1973 for the Cubs and Brewers.  He had 14 hits, 1 home run and a .135 batting average.

He managed the Phillies from 1985 to 1987 to a record of 190-194.  He had a winning season with the Phillies in 1986 when they went 86-75 and finished 2nd in the NL East, 21.5 games behind the eventual World Series Champion Mets.

I mailed to Felske on January 22 and got the cards back on February 1, for a 10-day TAT.
