I'll agree the vintage is the best. I wish I had the Mantle/Aaron card but I don't.
As an Indiana fan who only likes the Colts and Pacers, this one I got back from PSA is a favorite of mine, not too many out there I would guess..............................
Definitely my favorite. These were issued in comics/magazines on a weekly basis. I'm sure there are plenty of these but all indications point to them only being released for one week.
Back reads "A year after the trade of Kevin Mitchell broke the Major's most productive 3-4-5 trio, the Girants forged a new heart of the order with the signing of free agent Barry Bonds to join Will Clark and Matt Williams. Bonds, the...."

Collecting PSA graded Steve Young, Marcus Allen, Bret Saberhagen and 1980s Topps Cards. Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.
Strange choice of players as Santiago was not a leader in any Padres catagory in 1987 (he was ROY though), or at least none that he would use on his resume....
The back does show why Gwynn was elected this year. He was the 1987 team leader in batting average (.370) runs (119), hits (218), doubles (36), triples (13) and Stolen Bases (56....wow).

This card is on ebay for the second time. I think the Mantle "M" swoops look wrong though. If it was PSA/DNA I would be bidding heavy on that card.
When I looked at Brett, I thought of the I-70 Series of 1985.
I had just been reassigned to St. Louis. That was a great Royals team.
thanx for sharing
