So the 1971 Topps Garo Yepremian Rookie has a stationwagon in the background ?

Any other cards have cars in the background ?

Cant think of any off hand but if any set does, it would have to be Topps 1973.

Off the top of my heid -

1964 Philly Jim Brown, several Browns actually.

Someone named Alvarado in 73 baseball if I recall.

I think Roger Clemens all-star glossy topps card from around 87 has cars in background.

Thanks guys. Great cards. I like the cards that show what type of vehicles mom and dad were driving back then.

I recall the 1977 Dan Fouts card had cars in the background. I think a panel station wagon. Let me check eBay and see...

Yep, there it is.

It's the famous Battery in Charleston, South Carolina. Must have been when he was with the Rainbows.

How about a parking lot full of cars....

My favorite. Also note how the Royals couldn't be bothered to give Bo a jersey with the underlining under the "Ro" in Royals.

great topic! I thought of the 73 Alvarado as soon as i saw the title.

Not my card -- but the Paul Waner Zeenut card has a pretty awesome car in the background:

I just noticed this one today. It's a 1956 Parkhurst CFL card of Lynn Bottoms.

If Luis Alvarado isn't playing on a little league field, then nothing is real to me anymore.

Pretty sure that all of the Browns in the 64 Philly set (except Schafrath and Collins?) are pictured in front of Jim Brown's cadillac...

This is the first card that popped into my mind.

Not sure why I know this, but I think 1977 Topps Dan Fouts has a Family Truckster in the background.

Pretty good memory, gregmo. Here's the Fouts. Is that a Family Truckster?

Certainly not a car...but I always liked the FEMA trailer behind Biff..

I posted a link to this thread on my Facebook page, and someone asked if a truck in the foreground counts:

Not card related, but when I was in 8th grade my history class watched a film on the American Revolution where they were reenacting Paul Revere. As he got on his horse and rode off, the teacher stopped the film, rewound it, and ran it back, asking if anyone saw anything odd. He did this a few times before someone said "they didn't have station wagons in 1775 did they?". There was a station wagon in the background of one of the shots of Revere riding away. A good old 1970's we-don't-need-no-minivan station wagon.
