Can anyone identify this Joe Torre?
 

I just picked up Torre card; can anyone identify the year/issuer?
The back is blank.

Thanks,

Early seventies Cardinals team issue.

Thanks!

I thought that, but didn't see the little print seal like you have on your cards...uhhh..I mean...Cards...hehehehe.

I noticed that too, I wonder if the card was trimmed on the bottom at some time and cut off the seal and part of the signature.

I'm wrong on that theory, there are more that are the same as your Torre. The year of issue has to be 1969, the only year that Torre and Flood were teammates. Flood was traded immediately after the season in October to the Phillies, who he refused to play for.

A few more, they are definitely a 1969 team issue because that is the only year that Pinson played for the Cardinals.

You might check this site. I didn't look for you, but had bookmarked this sometime back. I would love to find someone who had a similar Dodgers site.

Heh...it looks like he had to borrow a pair of spikes from a teammate for the photo shoot (his uniform number doesn't match the number on the shoes). :p

Awesome!!! Thanks everyone!!!!

Good eye Tom S.! I totally missed that.

I forgot to add that the paper is textured, kind of like my 1936 DiMaggio Leather Finish card.
But I think I have enough to go on.
I wonder if PSA will slab it.
I don't do it for the grade, I just have the largest Torre master collection on their site, and want to make it to 100%.
