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 59?
Red Sox Cards on the Page
0. Once again.
Cards that make the 1975 Topps set cool
Team cards are cool. Players from the 1975 World Series are cool...and a whole team in this case. All-Star cards are cool, especially with that fun logo. Cards of young Hall of Famers are cool. While I'm not sure either Gaylord Perry or Sparky Anderson would qualify as "young" in 1975, they did have pretty long chunks of their careers after that.
My favorite card on the page
Have to go with Gaylord Perry. Nice posed action shot tightly cropped to show off the fun uniform. The all-star logo, and a Hall of Famer. Hard to beat that.
What would your answers to those last two categories be?
Pretty meh page although I liked the Paciorek and Leon cards when I was kid that year. The Reds team card was one of the last cards I needed to complete the set so the memory of that is still annoying.
ReplyDeleteI like the Paciorek card the best.
