Nice cards, fellas.

Underrated? Perhaps.

I think his cards are on par with his offensive numbers, but a slight bump because of his popularity.

Frank Robinson, on the other hand, has underrated material.

Al, I knew you would have some crazy stuff!

Brooks is underrated except for the individuals who saw him play regularly. Also, even though underrated I still get outbid on his stuff most of the time...

I know Rawlings didn't think he was underrated.

Al,

I'm really not sure, but believe it's mid '60's. If I were to guess I think it is 1964 since the photo is from the same photo shoot for the Rawlings glove box and advisory type photos. You can tell the photo's are a bit different than the advertising poster. There is also a Mantle Rawlings poster (which is faked so be careful) which has a similar setup as the Brooks.

There's another Brooks Rawlings advertising poster that I believe is a bit earlier as well which is about the same size of poster using a different pose.

Brooks Robinson is one of those defensive wonders that fades from the spotlight as those who recall seeing him play dwindle in numbers . Offensive wonders have a laundry list of stats that live forever. Brooks has his insane fielding % that gets undervalued .
