BUT WHY?? The new fonts aren't even consistent with each other. Compare your Oquendos to George Sisler here:<br />http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x6x4la3pd7k/TxIUnN6kRQI/AAAAAAAABQI/S88I9YNIqxU/s1600/img507.jpg<br /><br />That there is no other "Browns" card to compare it to makes that one less jarring, but I would value them so much more if the design was identical to the originals, including the fonts.Dangerzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11547495514471140654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762290031812281192.post-85087677473916025072012-06-03T00:15:58.917-05:002012-06-03T00:15:58.917-05:00I TOTALLY remember this from Super Duper Baseball ...I TOTALLY remember this from Super Duper Baseball bloopers... or Baseball in the 80s... one of those VHS tapes they gave you way back when for subscribing to SI or TSN or something. They spliced together clips of him playing each position so it looked like he was doing it all at once. <br /><br />As for Topps... it would have been alot less stupid if each card showed him at the position. Or if they at least used a design that listed the position on the front. C'mon, Topps, this shouldn't be that hard.Matt P.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762290031812281192.post-78700979509927602002012-05-28T08:56:24.274-05:002012-05-28T08:56:24.274-05:00And....they'd fit nicely into one nine pocket ...And....they'd fit nicely into one nine pocket sheet.
