1958 Omaha Cardinals Team Issue
Sorry, I guess I should've been more clear!
It's a 1958 Omaha Cardinals Team Issue card of the legendary Bob Gibson. I had been searching for one for about 11 years now and couldn't be happier with the one I picked up. I was surprised at the relatively small size and thickness of the card stock, as I had imagined that it would be more "photo-like" in size and thickness. I was wrong on both fronts!! The seller later e-mailed me the following: "this very card was on display earlier this summer when Bob Gibson's statue at Omaha's Werner Park was presented. Bob commented that he only remembered seeing one other and that was many years ago!"

You can find a common for about $20 on eBay every once in a while. I haven't checked recently...except to snag Mr. Gibson (for about the price of 50 commons).
