Coolest card?

Stingray · May 1, 2006 2:21AM

Saw a PSA 9 up for sale, missed out on it, but this one is from the #1 73 set. This has to be one of the coolest looking action shots ever on a card. I have never seen this card until last week. IMO.

I seem to remember an article on that card saying the pic wasnt Corrales.

If you like slides, this one can't be beat!

The 53 Bowman Reese is one of my all time favorites.....gosh I love that card.

Very, very cool card. Perhaps one of the coolest of the 70s. I think it would be cool to do a registry set of "70s Catchers in Action". This would be one along with the 71 Munson and the 77 Fisk. Any others?

How about some Joe Torre and Hanks brother.

i like the 76 Bench card, he isnt really "in action" But there is a cloud of dust around him for some reason. looks like he is walking down the street of an old west town to be in a shootout.

I always liked the Gary Carter card where he's holding the ball up to the ump just after making the play at home...I'm drawing a blank, was that '79?

What? You didnt expect someone else did ya?

JDouglas · May 1, 2006 9:43AM

that's a cool card Matt, but it's not even my favorite Emmitt card, I like the 91 Stadium Club of his very much.

1964 PETE ROSE & 1969 JOHNNY BENCH DO IT FOR ME

Yes, you are right! The 91 Stadium card is a cool card as well! Here it is.

Running away from everyone yet again. Look at the guy on the Jets on the right side of the card. He gave up and already started to walk off the field. Thats too funny!

JDouglas · May 2, 2006 9:06AM

very nice, and a beauty of a card. let me know if you have a 9 for sale of that 91 Stadium Club Emmitt, or anyone else for that matter.

Downtown1974 · May 2, 2006 9:19AM

I agree that the 53 Bowman Reese is the coolest card printed. Another card I love is the 93 Topps Kirby Pucket. That card is great, and can be had for just some pocket change.

Stingray · May 5, 2006 1:43AM

Saw this one, nice one of Munson, though not his card.

kadokakid · May 5, 2006 2:37AM

It's not an action photo but I've always been a fan of the 1970 Manny Sanguillen card, not sure why, just one of
my favorites.

Sorry I don't have a scan of it.
