What's weird is the 1971 Topps Thurman Munson card can be 'officially' called the first regular season Topps action card, because it is #5 in that set and the four cards preceding it numerically are all 'normal' cards.

There were several other action cards in the first series, so unless Munson was the first one pulled it wouldn't have been the first. To me the first action card was the 1970 Bud Harrelson. It showed him signing autographs at a game. That was surprising to me when I pulled it. When I saw more action cards in 1971, it was no big deal.

If this photo was taken during the 1964 season, Jack was a mere 35 year-old man at most...
s-l1600-2.jpg ...but, since the picture seems to be from the same photoshoot as his 1964 card (meaning a 1963 shoot date, most likely), he was just a 34 year-old man (at most) at the time... s-l1600-3.jpg Feeling old yet?
