Default 1969 Pete Rose All-Star

I suppose it may have come up before on a chat board like this, but I never heard of it... just noticed it a little while ago. The 1969 Pete Rose All-Star card has Mickey Mantle batting in the background. Same photo as the 1965 Mantle World Series HR card. Also, the Rod Carew All Star shows Lou Brock batting in the background (same photo as the 1969 Brock World Series card), and the Ron Santo All-Star shows Al Kaline (same photo as the 1969 World Series Kaline card). I think this is pretty cool. Is it old news?

Thanks for the tip. I just picked up the Carew to add to the Lou Brock collection

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

There are several others that use Topps World Series cards for the background. The Curt Flood AS card has Roberto Clemente in the background from 1961 Topps #306 1960 World Series Game 1.

I admit to not having known the difference but think it was a neat idea by someone

So does this add another card to the Mantle Master Set?
