1974 Topps Deckle Dating: Tony Oliva

The black-and-white makes it hard to tell, but I assume those are trees behind Oliva, not mountains.

March 25, 1973.

The clouds are a good sign this might be the right date - the Twins beat the Braves 1-0 in a spring game shortened by rain. In other news, the Battle of Tong Le Chon began in Vietnam, Argentinian terrorists took over a nuclear power plant (but only to steal weapons), Chicago ran it's last electric trolleybus, and Immaculata University repeated as US women's college basketball champions.

  1. Never heard of Immaculata University. Pretty cool that they won a title in women's basketball.
