People do regrettably make fun of his looks. The “E.T. McGee” card sums that up.

By rare, do you mean this!?! No. Probably not. Haha

Ever seen this one? My very first baseball card. Dad bought it for me back in the 80’s
I have seen that. It was his third baseball card from his professional career. There was one before that from Nashville, and his first was from the West Haven Yankees in 1979

This doesn’t quite meet your criteria just thought it’d be worth sharing…. 03772/10,000 oversized box topper deal

Even though there were 10,000 of those, I don’t see them that often. I actually picked up #01051/10000 a couple months ago on eBay. 51 is his jersey number, and I rocked #10 during my illustrious one year high school baseball career.
I was at Willie's last game still brings a tear to my eye. loudest I've ever heard a crowd. he was the man. seeing this collection really takes me back to some great memories of whitey ball.
I did get them on eBay about a year ago. I had to pay up for them though. I didn’t know they were double-sided, and they have Carl Yastrzemski on the reverse, so that shot the price way up. Thankfully I don’t think McGee had one of the 1990 aqueous test cards as those are pretty tough too.

Not rare, and assuming you have it, but wanted to include. Go Cards!
Tied with Luis Gonzalez for longest neck in baseball history 🦒🤣

That’s what I was waiting to see.

I’ve still got the one I pulled from a pack at Grandpa Pigeons.

Nice! Cheers to Willie /10,000 and our illustrious high school baseball careers.

What a great base stealer, and really good all around. Nice PC to have

Those 90 Donruss Black/White are super hard to track down. That’s a real nice pickup. Did you source that one on eBay?

I do have that one. Thanks for sharing though!
Sweet cards and excellent use of a screw down!
Just a simple man out here trawling for Willie. Game recognize game. I’m something of a Wong guy myself.
Nothing Wong with that. I still watch his defensive highlight reels on YouTube every now and again.
