Default Maris
Maris is not a Yankee on his 1959 card either. Maris first appears on a Topps card as a yankee in the 1960 Topps set.

I like it that Lou Brock is frowning in his first card as a Cub and smiling in all his Cardinals cards.

And Ozzie Smith does not look nearly as good in a Padre uniform as in all his Cardinals cards

Al, I don't think anyone could look good in one of those Padre uniforms.

No, I know, but just imagine that ‘59 card, everything is perfect about that card except he’s not in pinstripes. I know it’s a huge stretch but I’ve always wished that would have been his rookie and he was a rook with the yanks.

Along those lines, I admit I would have loved a 53 Topps Hank Aaron just so he could have a Boston, Milwaukee, and Atlanta card. (And yes, I realize he never played for Boston.)

The Rose rookie is truly awful, only post 50s rookie card I won't own.
