As much as I like '74, I always thought they dropped the ball with Aaron's card. The #1 card should have been a "Highlight Special"... it was ugly for a regular issue card. I did like the Aaron specials, much like I enjoyed the '75 MVP's. I was 10 years old at the time; it was the first time I got the chance to see what the older Topps cards looked like. And looking at the Killebrew card - you can clearly see that it was his batting profile that was used for the MLB logo (I've heard speculation that it was Pete Rose, but look at the logo and then look at the '74 Killebrew card - Identical.
