I was hoping for a card that mimiced the Reggie Jackson or Vida Blue.

Its a great set but they have been sloppy with reusing images from prior years, namely the Red Sox.
Exactly. And the thing I tried to emphasize has nothing to do with the poses. It's that every card for 5 years has been taken in the EXACT SAME SPOT! There was a gorgeous shot of Boomer Scott in '71...and numerous batting cage shots...even the ugly Yaz card had a different ANGLE for chrissake. This set is garbage.
ANY effort at all and it would've been really good.
The Red Sox are pointless to collect. They don't even try to emulate the 60s and 70s. Bummer.
