Hangman62- if Mays has the toupee as far back in 1965 doesn't that refute your idea that the gum given to players to stick the toupee on was not until the 1980's?

That's why the Yankees wear pinstripe at home and gray away.

Regarding the great toupee/hairpiece pandemic on the forum. Fact: Howard Cosell used Bazooka/Topps gum dating as far back to 65T. The problem was that he would throw away the cards. Topps got pissed and cancelled his contract. Cosell then went with Fleer and inferior gum. That's when Howard's 'hair' was mussed on national TV. You can look it up!

Thanks for the explanation Jeff. BTW, however the '66 and '69 Kalines are not the same photo-- taken moments apart maybe, but not the same.

Hi Darren,

I hope that I wasn't too long winded. I enjoy uniform discussions, and loved pulling out cards for comparison, etc. By the way, the principal of my junior high here in Southern California actually interrupted classes with the announcement that the Mets had just won the 1969 World Series. Kids went crazy here cheering- that team really had a national following. Also, the 1968 Ed Charles is one of my favorite cards of all time.

Todd- thanks for the note on the 2 Kaline cards- you are absolutely correct. I had that one stuck in my head as being the same shot, but they are definitely different pictures.

Thanks again guys,

Jeff
