Going into the 1967 set now. It's a beautiful set but this is when Topps started having photo licensing issues, and they pretty much stopped shooting in big league parks for a couple of years, with just about every photo from spring training.
There are still lots of great photos, though. I love this one with Claude Osteen in another team's spring training park. I wonder if that is the Al Lang Stadium fieldhouse again? Whatever it is, it makes for an interesting, atypical baseball card background.

Got to love that brown grass too.
ReplyDelete'67s are the best for backgrounds.
