Topps Scavenger Hunt

[Harliduck]

Just thought I'd drop an idea...if no one cares, no biggie. I personally love reasons to look through my cards, and I noticed in one of my 50's there was a shot of a player wearing a batting helmet. Got to thinking...I wonder what card was the first to bear a helmet considering they were just coming of age? So...here is a list, I say we find the "first" of the following in Topps cards. If something is in the same year, we can take the earlier number -


1. First Topps card showing a player in sun glasses
2. First Topps card showing a player using batting gloves
3. First Topps card showing a player wearing a batting helmet
4. First Topps card with a picture during an actual game
5. First Topps card picturing another player (in the background) near player
6. First Topps card picturing a player in a dugout
7. First Topps card showing a player with a wad of tobacco in
8. First Topps card pictured without a hat on
9. First Topps card with the ball in the air
10. First Topps card to show a microphone
11. First Topps card to picture and identify two players from different teams
12. First Topps card to picture an actual base or home plate



Ok...when someone post a scan, the goal with be to outdo them to identify the first of's...off to look through my cards! I hope this isn't too nerdy... Feel free to add any ideas to look for more cards..

Wow Rhett...didn't even know these Topps cards exist.

Here is the Connie Mack...I think he still has some sort of hat on?

In my mind I always remember Whitey wearing sunglasses on his '57 card.

And here it is...
