Default What's your favorite 1978 Topps card?

Are there any 1978 Topps cards that you prefer?



My HOF choice is Robin Yount.




There are many great common photos in the 1978 set. I voted for Joe Ferguson.

That is an easy one...Bump Wills(circle variation) with an honorable mention to Jerry Johnson (red mark variant).

Doug Ault is my favorite, with many/any of the better action shots coming in a close 2nd (Milan, Randle, Healy, Jackson). If only his career had taken a different path, what an amazing card that would be today.

HOF wise, I might lean towards Murray because I love the trophy cards, but Reggie is a great one and I have always really liked the Rod Carew for some reason. The AS badge doesn't hurt for sure and I agree, one of the better Topps used, although I liked all of them.78topps267.jpg

Bonus with the Doug Ault card--Thurman Munson crouched behind home plate.

I really love the set...first one I collected as a kid. Even helped me learn cursive. Murray, Rice, Reggie, and Guidry! But not Kingman!!

Of course the Reggie is a classic. I also liked the Mick - Mickey Rivers.

Ever notice how many of the Yankee cards were action shots taken from the first base dugout side? - Jackson (2), Chambliss, Rivers, Nettles, Lyle (2), Guidry, Munson, Hunter, Gullett, White.

Mickey Rivers is a philosopher; one of my favorite quotes of all time is:

"Ain't no sense worryin' about the things you got control over, 'cause if you got control over 'em, ain't no sense worryin'.

And ain't no sense worryin' about the things you don't got control over, 'cause if you don't got control over 'em, ain't no sense worryin'.

- Mickey Rivers
