But if you look at the pic above it, you'll see that Topps got all sorts of crafty. They done '1957hankaaroned' the image!! It's the same shot, just flipped!! The weird combover goes to his right and then to his left. And to add to their unbridled cleverness, they made sure to crop the picture differently, so the backwards "GOLDEN STATE" wouldn't give away the ruse.

Bravo!! Bravo!!

Interesting observation, but why are you posting about a basketball card in a post-war baseball card forum???
