Two Kool Katts

Mr. Katt and Mr. Katt?

Which Purrrrrson is It?

IN 417 GAMES OVER EIGHT SEASONS, RAY HIT 32 HOMERS,
WITH 120 RBIs IN 1,071 AT-BATS – LIFETIME .232 AVERAGE … (1958 TOPPS)

THIS 1965 WAS JIM’S SIXTH TOPPS CARD.
YOU’D THINK THEY WOULD KNOW HIS LAST NAME WAS SPELLED:  K – A – A – T.
ALTHOUGH IT WAS PRONOUNCED “COT,” MAYBE TOPPS GOT CONFUSED
BECAUSE HIS NICKNAME WAS “KITTY.”
