Jim Palmer
In the 70’s I got my first cards - a huge box of thousands of cards from the ’60s and very early ‘70s that a neighboring kid was giving away. My dad didn’t seem to really care, nor take an interest in much of what I was into, but he asked "do you have any Jim Palmers?”. Apparently he was his favorite player. I pulled out about a dozen cards from 67 to 72, but no RC. My dad was pretty excited and we bonded. He wasn’t a very affectionate dad, but I remember that very fondly. He got me a 1974 the following year -still my favorite card.
