I was always confused by Topps' use of such strange illustrations on their packaging.

I mean, this pink-and-orange-shadowed gentleman is basically holding the ball split-fingered against his ear, and the mechanics of his arm and body means he wouldn't be able to get anything on the apparent 'throw' he was in the process of making!!!!

Bizarre choice by the Art Department.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
