Anyone know what he meant when he referred to the sideways John Castino card in 1979? Not only was Casino's RC 1980 but there were no sideways cards in 1979 beyond team cards and the three-player rookie cards.

The writer honestly was not a collector nor really looked at the full sets. The article was based on google image search, so it was hackneyed as hell. Thus the reason the choices are so questionable and simply stolen from blogs.

Here is the fantasy Castino he found and thought was real as there was poor research done

Good observation there, Justin.

Well, at least (through his research) he got the '77 Topps card right with the Fidrych RC, possibly one of the best cards ever.
