That '63 card made me look up Bill White -- not a name like the others, but a very nice career.
And this: "White graduated from Warren G. Harding High School in Warren, Ohio in 1952, and was both president and salutatorian of his class. Because White was African American, Harding's principal ended the school tradition of the class president dancing with the prom queen (who was white that year)." Apparently would've been a doctor if the baseball thing didn't work out.

For those thinking of starting a Bill White player set, keep in mind he's in the 1963 Topps Dice Game, so that should pose a challenge.

I'm slowly working on a full run of Topps flagship LL cards from 1962-1984. They're so cool!

I don't think it is underrated but the 1965 NL ERA Leaders is my favorite:
 Dodgers guys on a Dodgers blue background design. Perfect!
