1974 Topps Deckle Dating: Dave May

 Dave May.

Dave may have had his photo taken on June 10, 1973. 

Dave did go 2-for-5 with two runs scored, including the eventual winning run in the 7th inning, of an 8-6 Brewers win.

In other news, the Explorer 49 moon probe was launched, all NYC-area cemeteries were shut down by a gravediggers strike, and at RFK Stadium in DC, the Grateful Dead played the longest set of their career, which was released as a live album (RFK Stadium, Washington, D.C. 6/10/73) in 2023.

Topps used a more dynamic photo from this shooting for May's base card.

The photo for Dave's '74 Topps Stamp may have been taken at this time as well.
