Wow, i thought i was the only one who appreciated great action shots on cards no matter who the player is!! Great choice VoodooChild!!!! 1971 also had a lot of action shots, in fact 1971 is really the first set since 1956 that had a lot of action shots in it. For that reason, i consider 1971 a milestone set. My alltime fav is still 1956, what great action and backgrounds on so many of those.
