That '74 has always puzzled me. Why did Topps put a dreamy, surreal bright yellow/green background on that sucker??

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

A few odds and ends to the "Rookie" Collection. Nothing spectacular, but I enjoy them. The Kellogg's Eckersley was in a PSA 9 holder and the Kellogg's Murray was in a PSA 8.

Yes, it really jumps out! Do you think there's any chance it was just the actual photo, maybe with a weird glare or reflection? I will say I kind of like it. And Williams himself may stand out a bit more against the background than if it were regular coloring.

Very cool 74 Williams; never laid eyes on that card before!

Finally found the centered 75 Ryan of my dreams.

Matty,

Nice 75 Topps Nolan. 75's are tough to find centered. Congrats.

I saw that too. Heck i didnt even notice the chipping as pointed out.
Who in their right mind would spend 50 bucks on it? LMFAO!!
I think the guy didnt understand the point coming across of spending over 1k for what is graded a psa9 (that looks like a 8).

if I had to pick outright, i'd take matt's copy.

the twelve hundred dollar difference would just be the cherry on top.
