TRIVIAL TRIVIA - Sorry no prizes :(

I own four complete baseball sets that might be called vintage: ( over 25 years old)
They are:
55 Bowman
59 Topps
72 Topps
78 Topps

I was looking through the 78 set last night and it got me thinking.

As it turns out there are just five players who have "player" cards in three of the four sets; two of them are Aaron( 55, 59, 72) and Mays (55, 59, 72)

Who are the other three??

    I'm stumped. Julio Franco? image
  • Wilhelm and Kaline and...

    Red Schoendiest...wait Schoendiest' 72 is a manager card...
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    By the way, counting manager cards, Bill Virdon has a card in all four sets.
