For my money, it doesn't get any better than the T3 Turkey Red set - this one depicts a long-forgotten player and team, but is more beautiful than anything in the Louvre...
This guy could throw a baseball really hard... You may be cool, but you will never in your life be Birmingham's Big Bob Veale with flossy specs, parted hair, and a freakin' Pirates letterman jacket on his '69 Topps card cool...
Everything about this card is fantastic - the psychedelic '72 Topps design, the batting helmet with a fielding pose, the warm-up jacket, the palm trees in spring training...
