My Orioles bias may be in play with the third card but I have always felt it's the coolest card of the 70s and it's really my favorite for several reasons, the pose, his expression, the rookie award bowl, Just a very attractive card. |
Totally agree with the 1961 Wes Covington. I wish that pic had been a bigger name player.
