Wally Bunker is another former Oriole who's autograph I received TTM recently. I got his 1991 Crown Orioles card and his 1964 Topps signed.
Bunker (b. 1945) played in the majors from 1963 to 1971 for the Orioles and Royals. He had a record of 60-52 with 569 strike outs and a 3.51 ERA. He finished 2nd in the 1964 AL Rookie of the Year voting after going 19-5 with a 2.69 ERA. He finished 12th in the AL MVP race that year. He won the World Series with the Orioles in 1966. He helped their cause by pitching a shutout against the Dodgers in Game 3; a game the Orioles won 1-0.
I mailed to Bunker on September 29 and got the cards back on October 10, for an 11-day TAT.
