1970 Topps Booklets: The Orlando Cepeda Story

One player per team, this was the Braves representative. Cepeda had a fine season, but Hank Aaron was far better. Maybe being a new acquisition made him more interesting.


Some great cartoons here, with the mom and dad and the bull with the bat.


The giant coach with the tiny Cepeda is really strange.


Giant bat pictures are always fun.

  1. A. Very surprised they picked Cepeda over Aaron.

    B. My mom would play catcher for me when I needed to practice pitching.

    C. Nice Golden Gate Bridge cameo.
