I wanted you to see a picture and letter from Bud Wilkinson. I wrote him and and asked for a picture. He sent the picture and media guide. I can't find the media guide, it was small and pictures in B&W.
I wanted to post this before the puppet bans me.

Thanks for this, Mo...
I think you should have included Kleenex with it...It brings back very strong emotions for me!

Bud had a great command of our language, and was a Scholar, as well as being a Gentlemen and a Legendary Coach. I have boxes of Recruiting Letters that he sent to Jim, in the '50s, as well as those that he sent to all of the parents during the season. Very Classy! I also have the letters that he sent each player during the summer. He kept their fires lit and their motors running! They would make an excellent chapter in a Motivational Book. Imagine what Bud could have done with a Keyboard, in today's world!

Thanks so much for sharing your Keepsakes with OUr Board. It warms my heart to have Posters helping keep Memories of 'The Bud Years' and The 47 Straight alive...

Pix of those teams are on 'My Fan Page'. I believe you know many of those players.

Why would someone ban you for posting history such as this?
