I am putting together a collection of 100 cards from the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

There are some great players during the decade of the 70s...who made their debut then ---Munson, Schmidt, Brett, Yount, Winfield, Murray, Ozzie off the top of my head. Initially...I had limited my collection to cards earlier than 1976...then I saw the '76 Bench and the '78 Reggie. Those are pure classics...and I knew immediately those two had to be included in my collection. Beautiful game action shots!!!

It is cool to see how Topps baseball cards have evolved from its infancy...beginning as artist imagery of the players in the early 50s to a combination of photography and artist depictions on the cards from 1954 to 1956...then to full use of photography by 1957. Then in the 1970s...Topps began using game action photography for some of its subjects.
