A crowded time machine

In my latest Diamond Jesters time travel acquisition, I claimed five vintage baseball cards, featuring a total of 14 players!

10 players just on these three rookie cards from 1963 and 1964.

Four more on two 1965's. That Orioles one is particularly cool. Blair and Johnson helped the Orioles win two World Series. Each later went to New York and in Blair's case won two more as a player (Yankees) and Johnson won one as a manager (Mets). The Pan Am sign behind Blair is great too.
Hard to top vintage baseball with modern football, but a second-year card of all-time Giants great Lawrence Taylor just might do it.
