After playing a big role in
the Yankees dynasty of the 1950's, Hank Bauer finished up his career
with the Kansas City A's. He was a player-manager in his final season
and went on the manage the A's and Orioles for 8 years. Bauer took the
Orioles to a World Series victory in 1966, leading to an endsorsement
for this game in 1967. I believe it was manufactured for 5 years from
the mid 1960's to about 1971. I have only seen the 1966 season (1967
edition) offered for sale. I'm not sure if there were ever any other
seasons made for it.
