I assumed it was the guy catching the ball, but even my 5-year-old brain knew the card sucked.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621278770959088614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-48261688437947440772012-02-22T00:08:11.250-05:002012-02-22T00:08:11.250-05:00Another Mets card blog deconstructed the weird mid...Another Mets card blog deconstructed the weird mid-70s Hostess "Mets/Expos" card of Rusty, too.

He didn't sign a contract with Topps until 1997 because he didn't want Topps to have an exclusive on his Rookie Card by including him as a member of Team USA in their 1993 Traded Set.<br /><br />Besides A-Rod, Kevin McReynolds and Danny Jackson both had rookie cards in 1984 but didn't sign agreements with Topps until 1987 (their first cards were 1987 Topps Traded) because they wanted more than the $500 that Topps offered for their trading card rights.steeleherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17413236126581293109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-67234183313373936552012-02-21T21:12:16.640-05:002012-02-21T21:12:16.640-05:00I had never seen the 73 Tommie Agee before.

I like it just for the uniqueness.hiflewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07128126188366882765noreply@blogger.com
