Card of the Week: Mickey Hatcher

I've been thinking about doing something like this for awhile. After all, I've been collecting cards since I can remember, and I still, literally, have tens of thousands of cards sitting in a closet nicely organized by year and manufacturer. There is more dust sitting on those little treasures than what you might expect to find in your attic. And yes, I can't, for the life of me, even consider throwing them out. One of these days I'm gonna pick through them just for old times sake and pull out some of my old-time favorites to share here.

Unfortunately, since I've been too lazy to actually go through them this week I figured I'd steal a photo of a card I remember very well from my youth and make it my card of the week.

Above is the always jovial Mickey Hatcher showing off his new glove. Man-O-Live! He can catch everything with that. It comes from the 1986 Fleer set.
