Kingman was famous for his gargantuan home
runs and huge strikeout totals twenty years before they became commonplace. He
was actually a fair hitter for almost every team he played for, except the
Mets. In five and a half seasons for New York, Kong compiled a batting average
of .219. Pictured here on his 1972 Topps card, and there are many more cards
pictured below; have a look.

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’m still
accepting donations, should you feel so moved.
