Something cool about this card, if you didn't notice already, the team name is depicted as 'The Redlegs.' McCarthyism, anyone? I think it is pretty interesting that a part of US history is inadvertently depicted on this card. For those of you who don't get the reference, the anti-communism movement of the 1950s (Red Scare) was at its height when this set was released. In order to circumvent any possible negativity, the Reds were called the Redlegs. Interesting, indeed.
