2022 National Free Signer - Art Shamsky

Finally!  A free signer at the National that I hadn't seen before.  Art Shamsky was really nice and apologized for smearing my 1967 Topps after he signed it.  He offered to (and did) replace the card after I got home from the show.
Both of these cards were sent to me by my friend, Gerard.  Since he provided the cards, I sent him the replacement 1967 Topps and I kept the smeared one. 

Shamsky (b. 1941) played in the majors from 1965 to 1972 for the Reds, Mets, Cubs and As.  He had 426 hits, 68 home runs and a .253 batting average.  He won the 1969 World Series with the Mets.
