I would pay $19.95 for it. Perhaps it is of value to autograph collectors.

Lance was at a higher level than Ripken. Cal, while a strong fielder and
hitter, was not far superior.
Can anyone name a cycling equivalent to Cal ? Joop Zoetemelk'same comes to
mind.

How about just about anybody who shows up for work every day?

"... A 19-time MLB All-Star, Cal is considered one of the best shortstops to
ever play the game... Ripken is best known as baseball's "Iron Man" [2],
playing in a record 2,632 straight games, spanning sixteen seasons, from
(May 30, 1982 - September 20, 1998). He played his 2131st consecutive game
on September 6, 1995, against the California Angels, breaking the
56-year-old record set by the "Iron Horse" Lou Gehrig, the legendary New
York Yankee first baseman who ended his playing streak after contracting
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis...

I'm a Baltimorean, a cyclist, and a fan of both.
Would love it - for about $200....
