1961 Topps Covington

Greg— the Laboy comes a nice pink pastel version as well. I have only 2 of the 1970 Topps Cloth “cards” and Laboy is one

The bat cards are all cool

The Covington bat rack card has always been one of my favorites. That kid in the stands wearing the red shirt looks to be about my age in 1961. When examining the card as a child, I used to envy him and his view of the game - and maybe a leaning peak into the dugout!

Wonder if he ever realized he was on a baseball card

One does not have a card unless they have all obscure versions of that card. Back to shopping I go!

One more 1970 card:

Looks like 1970 was the peak year of bat rack cards

Back when I was actively blogging card stuff I did a Bat Rack Boys post with the 1970 I was collecting at the time.

Thanks for posting that card of Unser. I could remember a card with a shopping cart full of bats, but couldn't remember the player or year. Cool card.
