Long before Spike Lee wore a jersey at Knicks games, Don Rickles could be spotted wearing a Dodgers jersey. When the Dodgers moved west, they became he darlings of the Hollywood set. Many Dodgers appeared on various tv shows and stars started to attend Dodgers games. I enjoyed giving Rickles a Celeb Jersey Card because it is the oldest one to date. Rickles looks good on a 1949 Leaf!
Joining Rickles on the Dodgers bandwagon is one of his running mates, Dean Martin. Dino looks a bit off in the photo below, but he very well might have been a bit "off" at the time. Although his Celeb Jersey Card is older than Don's, I am not a big fan of the Play Ball cards. Of course, at the time, they were probably pretty cool. Not cooler than Dean, but few things were!
