Need Help Identifying Johnny Bench photo
 
1 Attachment(s)
Not sure if I'm posting this correctly. I hope you all can see the pic. Any ideas on this Bench item? Measures 7-1/16"x4-3/4" . Medium stock paper, not photo paper. Was listed as '68 Reds Picture Pack. Thanks in advance for any help.

This is a much earlier example but that Bench came in a similar envelope along with eleven other Reds. ETA, I think the seller is wrong and this might actually be a 1968 Picture Pack.

This is from the 1968 Picture Pack Reds set.

I think this is the same card. Labeled different than the PSA 8 copy.

I found a 1968 Cincinnati Reds Photo Pack on WorthPoint, the twelve players in the pack are Johnny Bench, Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Lee May, Vada Pinson, Milt Pappas, Alex Johnson, Tommy Helms, Jim Maloney, Leo Cardenas, Mel Queen, and Manager Dave Bristol.

Nice example Big Red Machine! That's a beauty! Do you know why PSA stopped putting a number grade on these ?

I believe it was because most of the photos from the 1967 and 1968 Reds Photo Pack sets are identical and PSA had a hard time distinguishing from one set to another. However, Johnny Bench is only in the 1968 set.
