Good action photo here, except for Mattingly's face in shadow. The pinstripe design of the card works really well here. The dugout and ground are tilted - Mattingly was probably crouched a little more in this photo, and the photo was tilted to make him look more straight up-and-down. Topps used to do that sometimes.

Yup. The pinstripe design pairs perfectly with Mattingly's pinstriped uniform.
ReplyDeleteI vaguely remember these. There were so many semi-licensed and unlicensed Mattingly cards back then, it's hard to keep track lol
