1936 National Chicle R311, Glossy ⭐ Henry Hank Greenberg
This is a card I bought raw in 2020.
I absolutely love the card and the Henry "Hank" Greenberg story.
Henry "Hank" Greenberg was a legendary baseball player for the Detroit Tigers and one of the first Jewish sports superstars in America.

• Power Hitter: He dominated the 1930s and 1940s, winning two American League Most Valuable Player (MVP) awards and driving in 183 runs in 1937.

• Yom Kippur Decision: In 1934, he chose to sit out a crucial game during a Jewish High Holy Day, earning widespread respect and becoming a hero to Jewish Americans.

• Military Service: He left baseball at his athletic peak to serve nearly four years in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II.
  I'm going to send it to PSA for enshrinement someday, when I get around to it.
  

On June 1, 2026, a flag flew above the United States Capitol in honor of Marilyn Monroe’s 100th birthday.

It is a fitting tribute to an extraordinary American life.

Marilyn worked in a defense factory during World War II. She traveled to Korea in 1954 to entertain American servicemen, performing for thousands of troops in bitter winter conditions. Throughout her life, she maintained a deep affection for those who served and understood the extraordinary reach of the platform she had been given.

She became one of America’s great cultural icons, but behind that image was a woman who worked, persevered, challenged convention and gave back.

As we continue to celebrate her 100th birthday, we remember Marilyn not simply for her fame, but for her contribution to American culture, her support of our servicemen and women, and the humanity behind an enduring American icon.

Through the Marilyn Monroe Mental Health for the Arts Program, we are carrying that spirit of service forward —turning remembrance into something that can help others.

2007 Topps Triple Threads Relics ⭐ John Fitzgerald Kennedy
John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, embodied a rare combination of intellect, courage, charisma, and national purpose. He led America through some of the most perilous moments of the Cold War, challenged a generation to serve something larger than itself, and inspired a nation to reach beyond its limitations. His presidency was tragically brief, but his imprint was enduring: JFK did not merely occupy the presidency—he enlarged the idea of what American leadership could be.
"Ask not what your Country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your Country."
We need more of this.
