I'm sure that you all remember that I finally completed my 1975 Topps set.
Now that it's done I thought it would be fun to look through the set and talk about it. Going page by page seemed like a good way to go about it. Hopefully you find it interesting to read what I have to say.
How about we continue with page 34?
Red Sox Cards on the Page: 1. Rick Burleson makes an underwhelming appearance.
Cards that make the 1975 Topps set cool: So much on this page! Cards of young Hall of Famers are cool, while Reggie is old enough to have earned the #300, he definitely qualifies. As does the great league leader card featuring Rod Carew. Team cards are cool, like the Pirates on on this page. Managers as players are cool. Oh, wait...wrong Dave Roberts. Things that are definitely NOT cool? Bucky Flippin' Dent.
My favorite card on the page: Have to go with the Jackson. It's always nice to get a card of his before he was a Yankee. Which, would also apply to Dent. Imagine...he was just some guy who starred for the White Sox as a rookie...and not the manifestation of pure evil.
What would your answers to those last two categories be?
Reggie is the answer to both questions, of course!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree that Reggie wins here, but I must say I really like the background on Grubb's card for some reason...
