What: 2013 Topps Heritage Buyback #217 - Jim King
Where: Sportlots
How Much?: $1.00
Why?: Because I don't often see '64 Topps Heritage buybacks for $1 or less. Jim's MLB career appeared to be over after he found himself playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League by 1958. He was the MVP of that league in 1960 though, and as such earned himself a second shot on American professional baseball's biggest stage.
Best of all, I didn't have a #217 buyback in my franken-set yet. A dollar well spent!
Franken-set Progress: 208/792 (26%)
