Some Cards Don't Fit the Set (post 'em if you got 'em)
I was looking at my 1974 set recently and once again ran across the Ron Santo card. This one has always puzzled me. It looks so out of place in its horizontal format with the candid shot of Ron, the sparsely filled bleachers and the bald old man (Durocher?) in the background. First of all, if Topps decided they were going to use this shot of Santo, why'd they make it horizontal? They could have easily crafted it in the standard vertical format. Weird.
It made me think of the 1954 card of the O'Brien Brothers, and how strange that cards was as it didn't fit in with the rest of the set. Does anyone else have any cards in mind that are aberrations in either subject matter or graphic composition? $(KGrHqJ,!oQFG),iRKmGBR2GvFkuTQ~~60_3.jpg
