You could own this for $499 on eBay but I don’t think there is a single “Richie Hebner on the Mets” fan out there.
It’s refereshing to see that the Mets never had any sentiments when it came to giving out numbers. I associate 3 with Buddy Harrelson so I was surprised to see Hebner got it. He wore 20 and 3 with the Pirates but 18 with the Phillies.
A quick look to the awesome Mets By The Numbers reveals that the immortal Sergio Ferrer was issued Buddy’s number three. I will have to dig up some old xerox copies of Mets Police ’78 – I bet dad went nuts.
