Mardie was actually drafted four times before he signed; twice by the Washington Senators and twice by the Mets. He pitched very effectively in his only major-league season. He appeared on a couple of oddball card issues, but was never a part of a mainstream set; he is shown here on his 1978 TCMA Tidewater Tides card. Mardie's son Nate also made it to the big leagues as a pitcher with the Detroit Tigers in the late 1990s.

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.
