Agreed. Save for the beautiful Clemente on the 1971 World Series card, it seems Laughlin didn't do too much with specific players in the 'update' cards. Among other things, why in heck is Reggie not showcased on the 1977 card??? Makes no sense. I wonder if Fleer perhaps ran into some licensing issues? (It's definitely Yaz on the card you referenced, but with the Bench-like player batting lefty, it may be a Rose/Bench amalgam??)
