For every player active on or after 8/28/77, but who debuted before 1978, a card from 1977 or the next possible year, except that multi-player cards, game cards and a few other types are skipped over and used only when necessary. Minor league cards are used as a last resort. I own each card pictured. The highly uninteresting rules are in my profile page, linked above.

894 players debuted before 1978 and were active on or after 8/28/77. The list shows 892 cards because a card won't post twice, and these players appear on the same card:
Dave Oliver & Sam Perlozzo
Larry Landreth & Bruce Taylor

See any mistakes, such as the card picturing the wrong player or misspelling a name? Or maybe a higher priority card exists but isn't yet listed in TCDB? Please let me know.
