I love this idea and have been participating but perhaps a month is too long to tally the votes?

Manning.jpg Besides the two above I also like Bando and Bench's cards respectively. This was the second year I collected baseball cards and like many, when we moved from the midwest most of my cards were lost/thrown out. I like the action shots of Manning and Bando. Though the Chicago teams were my favorite as a kid, I was enamored by the A's as they were the team to beat when I first started watching baseball. Regarding Garvey's card, he was in his prime during this time and on his way to a near great career. I love All Star cards too.  Who doesn't like Johnny Bench cards? Even as a little kid I knew Bench was the best in the game.

I love this set, but I know I'm in the minority. The color combinations match beautifully with most teams, especially the A's, Orioles, Twins and Yankees. Bando would have made my list but since he's taken, here are 5 of my faves:
1. Lyman Bostock--a potentially huge talent taken way too young.  2. The Captain on a card from his MVP season. Classic.  3. Dave Parker, when svelte.  4. Graig Nettles. This just looks like a great day to be at the ballpark.  5. Goose. Love the uniform. (tYTQ~~60_3.JPG)

For my money, the Bench is perhaps the all-time greatest card ever produced by Topps. The dust, the look of intimidation, it's got it all!!! And an all star graphic to boot! The Yaz is a cool action shot, the Bonds is just a great picture in a very colorful design, the Rose shows such intensity and Al Oliver with that huge, goofy grin looks like he's thinking, "Damn, hooked it juuuuust foul!!!"
