[clawmaster]

Only had one of those cards. Great stuff as usual clip corner.

[rlb147]

great

[sittingstill]

Question - when Ron and Terry Garvin were in Mid Atlantic at this time, was Jimmy Garvin managing them? I remember reading he started as their manager in the late 60's, but I'm specifically referring to the run referred to in the above results....

[cwh47]

Sittingstill,Ronnie and Terry Garvin did not have a manager
during this period in JCP.
