Second Bob Watson post within a month.
TCDB didn't have a back scan; I found this image on Collectors.com.March 24, 1973. I've posted that date from several cards already. Astros teammate Doug Rader was listed on that day, and I determined that had to be wrong in my post for that card. By association, that casts some doubt on this date as well.
This is a spring training shot, and Watson's 1973 Topps card has his photo at Shea Stadium, so this is not a repeat of the issue with Rader's card. I didn't see any other Topps cards that had a spring photo of Watson with a dark shirt under his jersey. However, as I looked at his cards, it was clear that his 1973 Topps and 1974 Topps photos were taken at the same time.
