Not much there except, “Strang, a much-traveled Tennessean, was known to some as the Dixie Thrush.”

The book is “Baseball In Baltimore” by James H. Bready.

I cannot pinpoint why. He was a great player. He is a hall of famer. He is by far not my most valuable card. For some reason I just like him and this card in particular. It is perfectly clean card for 1967. Eddie did it right. I wish his career was longer. I love your website. I hope you keep up the energy to keep at it.
