I like 'em too
I just wish the '74 Schmidt looked halfway as nice as these. I remember getting my mom to take me to Toy City to get a couple of those 3-in-one cello packs. You would go thru the whole box looking for the best showing front or back stars. Also, just shaking my head at the fact the last years (1973) Cy Young went to Palmer when Ryan pitched not one but 2 no-hitters and broke Koufax' single season strikeout record. SOB Palmer had as great team and the voters gave him brownie points for his wins - when hands down the best pitcher was Ryan. I was 9 years old and lived less than half hour to Anaheim Stadium - saw ryan many times. You always heard the before game crowd banter, "will Ryan throw another no-hitter tonight?"
