I love these cards that never were. How I wish Topps would make these with images that fit the time they were released.

For no reason whatsoever (well, besides personal enjoyment), I present for everyone's perusal a whole bag of Roberto Clemente In Action cards that never were...

And, what the heck, some slight re-workings of the Brooks Robinson...

Not a Hall of Famer, but the guy who captured the 1972 MVP award, Dick Allen... 1972dickallen01.jpg1972dickallen03.jpg1972dickallen02.jpg

I just wish Topps would have put as much thought into the originals as Darren has put into making these great "cards that could have been" recreations. Great job Darren! I love the Clemente cards.
