Billy Wynne

Billy Vernon Wynne
Batted: Left
Threw: Right
Height: 6'5"
Weight: 206 lbs.
Born: July 31, 1943 in Williamston, NC
Signed: 1965 by the Mets
Departed: traded to the Chicago White Sox with Buddy Booker, Tommy Davis, and Jack Fisher for Tommie Agee and Al Weis, December 1967

Started one game for the Mets in 1967, and had one pretty good season in the big leagues for the White Sox in 1969. The card pictured at the top of this page is from the 1971 Topps set, a pretty nice copy of a high-numbered card. Interestingly, four of Billy's eight career wins in the big leagues came against the Angels, with whom he's pictured here!

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. Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
