Ken was a National League MVP and a
many-time All-Star. He managed the Cardinals briefly. And as you can see by the
card on the right (from 1965 Topps), he once hit a grand slam home run in the
World Series to defeat the Yankees. Pretty good stuff. More items are pictured below, including his
'55 Topps rookie card, and a pretty hard-to-find pin from 1956 Topps.

This is a list of the cards of this player
that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said
collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed
in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity
prior to my divestiture. The cards
listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final
deal. Items listed in green I kept out
of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and den. At the bottom and listed in orange text are
cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a
certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the
top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used areas. If an orange card is struck through, it has
also departed the collection. I am still accepting donations, should
you feel so moved. Contact me by
