The only Oriole each year was Milt Pappas. The only way to differentiate the two years is the addition on the 1965 of reference to a game in 1964 and stats updates.

1964 and 1965

I've always liked the looks of these cards; probably the colors w/the B&W player picture is just a nice setup. Wonder why Milt was the only Oriole in the game?
