That last one is hard to beat, but here is my attempt.

1989 MLB Umpire Set

Standard questionnaire responses on card backs.

Frank Pulli's response to 'No one knows I'm' - Blind

Several others answered - 'Sensitive' or even 'Very Sensitive'

John Shulock said no one knows he's 'Really a nice guy'

Bob Davidson said that no one knows he's 'Intelligent'

I love this one:



Trull played up to and including 1969, while Blanda played though 1975.

Read Dave Bennett's bio:



I always got a kick out of the 1974-75 Frazier card too:

My favorite:

1969 Topps Test - Bowie Kuhn

Check out his eyes, batting and fielding records. Not very PC at all!

Here is another pre-war card - the back of the T205 Addie Joss is interesting (but not funny)

The 1976 Laughlin tribute to the Indianapolis Clowns has a number of great backs (and fronts). This is far and away my favorite, due in great part to sharing the same name. If you have an extra copy, I am always buying this card.

I think O'Toole's tool might have been done by Irwin Hasen, who did the 54 and 55 cards at least, possibly more.
