Nice image, Rob. Have you gone back to match numbers to see who all of the players are on this card? Anyone know of a resource out there that has taken the time to do this for action cards like this? That would be a really cool project.

No, Jeff, I hadn't thought to do that. Sayers got my attention, but didn't consider the others. I know that I always do notice all of the players in the image in action shots of the '70s from the Cowboys, Dolphins, and Vikings as I was so familiar with their teams.

That would be an interesting project, though a very large one. Probably find a lot of guys whose appearance in an action shot was their only appearance on a card.

A side project of mine is collecting all the Fleer Team Action cards with Andre Tippett or John Hannah in the photo, even when they're not the featured player (or team).

Love that. I could definitely do that with a few guys, Dick Anderson comes to mind. I have always wanted to get started with the Fleer but have been too occupied with just the Topps. You may have planted a seed.
