Byron McLaughlin on baseball cards

Byron McLaughlin pitched in parts of five seasons for Mariners and Angels. In 129 games (35 starts) he went 16-25 with 16 saves and a 5.11 ERA. After his playing career ended, he had legal difficulties and left the United States. Despite sensational claims on Wikipedia and elsewhere, he has been living in Vietnam for the past 25 years, working as a factory general manager for United Seafood Packers. He has recently started his own website to tell his story. He kindly answered my questions about baseball cards.

"Unfortunately I have not followed the baseball card industry since leaving the game in 1984, I have not signed any baseball cards since the close of the 1983 season. From my little league days to my early 20s I was a committed baseball card collector and I had many valuable  cards in my deck, but in 1984 when I was jobless after leaving the Major Leagues I was compelled to sell off my robust collection as I needed money."
 

Thanks!
