What is Tom Terrific doing??

Ever since I was a kid I couldn't figure out what the heck was going on with Tom Seaver's bizarre 1972 'in action' card. At first glance, he appears to be enjoying a fine, knee-slapping laugh...which is quite weird for a baseball card. But if you look at it long enough, that giggle possibly turns into an image of Seaver in mid yell, shouting to Jerry Grote where to throw the ball during a sacrifice bunt attempt?? I dunno, but just the image of him all hunched over is very troubling to me in its own right.

I love that card! Some of the 72 IA images are great.

Looking for Manfred the Wonderdog. (If you get this reference then you are probably as old as me) Dave:)

Not sure, but that is the same Spalding glove he is wearing in his 73 card.

Maybe he's looking for the cat that ran under the stands
Just a thaught

There's a hilarious blog dedicated to all types of strange cards.
