Duke Snider

Edwin Donald "Duke" or "The Silver Fox" Snider
Batted: Left
Threw: Right
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 190 lbs.
Born: September 19, 1926 in Los Angeles, CA
Signed: 1943 by the Brooklyn Dodgers
Acquired: purchased from the Los Angeles Dodgers, April 1963
Departed: purchased by the San Francisco Giants, April 1964
Died: February 27, 2011 in Escondido, CA

 

Part of New York's center-field triumvirate from the 1950s, along with Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays, the Duke was a shoo-in for the Hall of Fame. He's pictured here on a most excellent 1958 Topps card along with Mays. Several more cards of the Duke of Flatbush are shown below, as well as a magnificent marble bust from Upper Deck.

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.
