Kevin Collins

Kevin Michael "Casey" Collins
Batted: Left
Threw: Right
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 190 lbs.
Born: August 4, 1946 in Springfield, MA
Signed: 1964 by the Mets
Departed: traded to the Montreal Expos with Bill Carden, Dave Colon, and Steve Renko for Donn Clendenon, June 1969

Kevin had been with the Mets on and off ever since 1965 until he got traded to the Expos early in 1969. Of course, he went from one very bad expansion team to another very bad expansion team, while the maturing Mets went on to capture the '69 World Championship. He's pictured here on his Topps card from that season.

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 following this link: NYMHall.
