I went to the Greenville card shop the other day and actually remembered to take my notebook with me. I'm really glad I did, because I found a 1971 Topps card that I needed for my set:
This George Foster RC. Foster was a pretty darn good player (and one of my first ever relic cards). The 1977 NL MVP hit 348 home runs over his 18-year career. He played from 1969 to 1986 for the Giants, Reds, Mets and White Sox. Not a back rookie card for $4.00. Slowly, I'm knocking this set down. I hope to find a good many of the high numbers at the next card show, that is, if I have time to do any shopping. I hope I'm busy that day selling stuff.
That is quite the snarl on Foster's face!
