If the Drapo had an 8 instead of a 6 and the Bell a 7 instead of a 5
it would be easily accepted,, i opened many 52 packs in the early 70s and i know 1st hand they didn't come much better than those 2, very nice pick ups. |

Thanks to a heads up from CardinalCollector (thx, Randy) a ten year search has concluded. I overpaid but what the hey.

That's great Jeff. He only played one year in St Louis and some were happy when they got him and some leery due to his history. Plus Curt Flood was part of the deal to get him and that raised controversy everywhere. But he had a very solid year for them in 1970, 30 +HRS and 100 + RBIs as I recall, and Jack Buck even agreed to call him Dick instead of Richie

Thanks Al. I remember it well. I remember really being bummed out that his 1970 Topps card was just a photo of him in a Phillies uniform turned sideways instead of a beautiful Cardinal uniform.

Attaboy Jeff--much nicer than his '70 Topps Cardinals. Was he ever really called just Rich Allen though?
BTW, can you tell me what is the approximate ratio of unnumbered to numbered '71 Bazooka cards? The latter don't seem to hit my radar hardly at all.

I edited above. When Flood refused to report ,the Phils got Montenez instead. Check out what he produced for them in 1971. He surpassed some of Allen's rookie stats

Sorry I just now noticed your question. Based on my observations they are certainly scarcer but not extremely rare. I see see cards like the Robinson, Aparicio, McCovey and Gibson in the numbered variation a lot. For the life of me I could never find a Dick Allen. Even at 12 Nationals when someone would have a small stack of "numbered," no Allen.
