I had also included a 1997 Topps Stars, 1997 Topps, 2997 Donruss Preferred, 1993 Flair and a 1996 Topps Finest.
Johnson (b. 1963) played in the majors from 1987 to 2000 for the Cardinals, White Sox, Mets, Cubs and Yankees. He had 1,565 hits, 34 home runs and a .291 batting average. He led the league in hits twice (1995 and 1996) and in triples 5 times (1991 to 1994 and 1996). He was an All Star in 1996 and his best (and only) finish in the MVP voting was also that season, 18th (NL).
I mailed to Johnson on November 9, 2016, and got the cards back on January 16, 2021, for a 1,529-day TAT. He also included someone named Ethan's letter and answered his questions. Maybe one of these days, I'll find out who this Ethan guy is, and can get him his letter back.
