This is probably from the 1971 or 1972 Cardinals Post Card Set. Lee Thomas joined the Cardinals prior to the 1971 season after playing with the Cardinals Tulsa farm team during the 1970 season. He served the Cardinals as a batting practice pitcher and bullpen coach for the Cardinals in both the 1971 & 72 seasons then managed for the Cradinals in the minor leagues in 73(Sarasot) & 74(Modesto). He last played in the ML with the 68 Astros and played in Japan in 69. So I would say 71 or 72 for the date of issue for this team issue PC.
