Night Owl Cards

  Today is Ron Cey's birthday. I know everyone is obsessing about 2022 Topps right now (or which card is Wander Franco's rookie card), but really there is only one thing that matters on Feb. 15: The Penguin's birthday. He is 74 this year, which is significant because the '74 Topps card was his first solo card and what a card it is. But where does it rank among all of the major-issue cards released during Cey's career? Yes, we are here. I am going to rate all of Cey's cards from 1974-87, every major issue from Topps, Donruss and Fleer. No Kellogg's or Hostess, no stickers or '80s Fleer minis, no fold-outs and other oddballs. I do have that stuff, of course. He's my favorite player by far. But I don't have all day. Oh, I'll throw in the Traded cards here, too. That brings me to a nice, round 30 cards to rank. I suppose everyone thinks they know what card is going to be ranked first. Maybe they're right. Maybe. We'll have to see, won...
