1970 Topps Booklets: The Ernie Banks Story

According to Roy Carlson's research, this is based off the photo used on Banks's 1971 Baseball's Greatest Moments card.

The Bunyan-esque panel is fantastic.
So many great accomplishments in Banks's career. His vintage cards always seem undervalued to me.
Now that's a panel you would never see today!

    A. I wonder if he still holds that consecutive games played from the start of a career record. I tried to look it up... but the consecutive games record kept popping up.

    B. Yeah... guns and card cartoons definitely wouldn't go over well with parents these days.
