Vida Blue just exudes such joy in his shot!
Art Shamsky getting brushed back by a heater (although when I looked at this picture, I always saw him getting fooled by a breaking ball, but the catcher's mitt belies that).
'Rich' all confident that today he will destroy yet another pitcher.
Lou Brock looks almost angelic, as if he found God. But try to find this card centered, and you'd be looking for a miracle.
Tommie Agee's card features 4 separate people, all prominently. You almost have to play a 'Where's Waldo?' game to figure out which player is Agee. But it's nice having Joe Morgan nearby.
And the worst card in the set is the Mr. Cub offering. Come on, Topps!!! For Ernie Banks' last card you get him all crooked faced, seemingly in mid-yawn at Shea Stadium???? You really couldn't do better than this shot?????!!!!!
