Does anyone know of any player cards that list Arkansas as their home in the 68,70 & 71 Topps? I know of zero but suspect there must be at least 1.

Where they were born, or where they were living in those years ?

Here's a good starting point if you're looking for native sons:
https://www.baseball-reference.com/bio/AR_born.shtml A spot check from that list shows these: Brooks Robinson and Lou Brock, Willie Davis, Floyd Robinson ('68 Topps only from your list), Rick Monday and Don Kessinger, along with Dick Hughes, he of that magical 1967 season, who appears in '68 and '69 Topps only. Hughes was a Razorback and also lived in AR per his '69 Topps card, but not per his '68 Topps (Shreveport LA). Kessinger lists Forrest City as home on his '68 card but not the others. Hope that helps.

Those years of Topps list home only. There is no Floyd Robinson card that lists Arkansas that I can find. |
