The front: Great photo of Glynn’s explosive delivery, while
a Shea Stadium groundskeeper relaxes in the background.
The back: When Glynn was traded to the Mets, the club had a
pre-game ceremony where he was awarded a special personalized hot dog container,
and he went into the stands to sell hot dogs in uniform.
The player: Glynn pitched for the Tigers, Mets, Indians and
Expos from 1975 to 1985. In 175 games, mostly in relief, he went 12-17 with 12
saves and a 4.25 ERA.
The man: Per many comments on the Ultimate Mets Database
Glynn was a well-known partier in the Flushing area during his Mets career. He
now rents rooms in Virginia Beach.
My collection: I have eight of his cards, from 1977 to 1987.
I would be interested in trading for 1983 TCMA Charleston Charlies #19.
Great story about the hot dogs. Thanks for sharing that link!
