“Dear Ken,

I have just finished reading JerseyMan Magazine, vol 2 no. 6. This is the first I’ve heard of your magazine, so I was greatly impressed with the diversity of topics, the quality of the writing, the authors, and just generally with what you are trying to portray through this medium. This is the first time that I’ve read and enjoyed every article in a magazine. You should be very proud because I think it already is a great success!!

I read your impressive dossier, and since I’m almost 82, I’ve seen a lot of Philadelphia greatness. Impressed you signed with the Eagles. I had better offers, but stuck with my home town. I played pro ball in the Phillies organization from 1950-55 and was blessed to have two sons who also played. John, with the Boston Red Sox and Montreal organizations, and Dave played with the New York Mets organization. John played for one year, 1988, in the majors with Boston. That was a great thrill for my wife, Gwen, and me. Our daughter Grace spent 2 years as a soloist skater for the Ice Follies of Shipstad and Johnson from 1978-80.

I am from Philadelphia, son of Howard "Ziddie" Trautwein who was a professional baseball and basketball player back in 1919 to 1930, and ultimately a basketball coach at South Philadelphia High School and PMC, now Widener College. Dad had 6 city titles in 10 years and then went to PMC, where his teams gave great teams like St. Josephs, with the likes of George Senesky, fits. I played basketball, baseball, and soccer at Friends Central and was all scholastic in basketball and baseball, and all-league in soccer. I received a scholarship to Lafayette for basketball and baseball and after my first year I signed with the Philadelphia Phillies as a left-handed pitcher. We lived in Ocean City, NJ for 36 years, off and on, and sold our home in June this year. We now live in Sanibel, FL.

Good Luck,
Jack Trautwein”
