Card #597 - The picture of Frank LaCorte on his rookie card doesn't look like any other picture of him that I can find. It is a tiny picture but I think that is actually a picture of Preston Hanna. Agree? Disagree? Did I find a 45 year old undocumented UER in the mighty Topps baseball? ------------------------------- <Insert Signature Here>

Looks like Preston Hanna to me. Nice catch. ------------------------------- I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

Agree. ------------------------------- ~Rob~ Hockey set collector including inserts, ERR, COR, VAR. Knowledgeable about 1968-69 to 1994-95 hockey. All 1990 and newer cards for trade are NRMT. Expect the same in return. 1989 and older are assigned a grade. Everything on my trade list is available for sale. Reasonable prices based on condition. If it's not on my tradelist, it's not available.

Looks like you hit the nail on the head. Wouldn't it be great if we could somehow get one or both players to confirm it? ------------------------------- My hobby blog: www.stadiumfantasium.com: Baseball, baseball cards and fantasy baseball. Ain't life a pitch?

I also agree. It looks nothing like Frank and looks exactly like Preston.
