Posted By: Josh K.Julie, While it may not be considered "vintage" on this board, I agree that the Reese is a great looking card and would rank among my favorites as well.

Posted By: dan mckeeLeon, unfortunately at once a month for 2 years, you really do get used to the exams. Still no fun but the big "C" is much worse! trust me, Dan.

Posted By: Lee BehrensI want to know what happened to the rest of the players in the Reese card. I had the "Big C" and thank goodness I don't remember any of it. My doctor told me he was goin to start the prostate exams when I was 40, I just turned 40 and he has been doing it for about 5 years. Thanks Goodness he is a better doctor then mathmation. Lee

Posted By: Colt McClellandI couldn't resist as this has long been one of my favorite baseball cards. I realize this is not "vintage" under this group's definition, but a lot of collectors would still call this vintage. Leon, please don't delete me. <img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/cmcclelland/1971toppsgreatestmoments/large/9robinson.jpg"> delete <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> don't walk on eggshells guys and girl....

Posted By: jay behrensJay, I think the photographer got pissed at Hengle moving around so much while trying to take his picture that he just shot him and solved the movement problem. Jay I've just reached Upper Lower Class. I am now officially a babe magnet for poor chicks.

Posted By: Scott ElkinsE92 Bridwell and Seigle E90-1 Hall I also have the two Exhibits Horizontals Adam listed above Frisch and Johnson - both of those are nice poses. However, the black and white photos just aren't as nice to me as the early colorful backgrounds on the caramels.

Posted By: Adam J. Baxterthat Hengle can't get up for the camera because he's completely wasted. <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14> I have to go along with Scott E. on the E92 Seigle, it's definitely one of the nicest horizontal cards out there. One of my favorites is the 1909 T212-1 Obak Hogan.Just a nice simple head shot. All of the Zeenut horizontals are pretty cool as well. Best, Adam

Posted By: Scott MThought I'd share one more I like... doesn't depict a particular player but certainly vintage horizontal. Leon, I was thinking the same thing about the J=K I posted that it would have looked funny "sidewards" on the box. Scott F... LOL... does look like hes misplaced a contact doesn't it. <img src="http://home.comcast.net/~jillmay5/baseball/Type/A_P_Trade_Card_Front_Small.JPG">

Posted By: Scott MThis is the rarer "singular" version of the card missing the "s" at the end.. Kind of like the "nodgrass" <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> I didn't realize that the trade card would generate such interesting observations but they've been entertaining reading so far!
