Random Card of the Day

Year: 1967

Set: Topps (Rate)

Card: #542 Athletics 1967 Rookie Stars (Rick Monday / Tony Pierce)


“ Too bad this card is not going to come up as Card of the Day on a Monday! (At least, I don't think it will! I've never actually counted the days between posting the thoughts and actually showing up) The design is good, even if they did apparently catch Tony Pierce in mid-blink. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Ah, the green and gold KC A's. One of the best uni sets ever. ” -jlaz10

“ Ah, the last year that I collected until the early 80s. If you find any that are centered, let me know (just kidding). I remember Rick Monday most from a game when he was with the Dodgers. Two guys ran onto the field and tried to ignite the American flag but had trouble. Monday swooped in and picked it up before they accomplish their sad goal. ” -NJDevils

“ What's not to like. A couple of minor leaguers looking to make it big in the show. From what I remember, Monday had a pretty good run into the mid-80s, while Pierce, I don't recall at all. ” -vrooomed

Rick Monday, #7, was my very first favorite player when he was with the Cubs in the 70's. Now he is the color guy on the radio for the Dodgers.
