Agreed! Right out of a pack!

The Shreve '75 is the one that knocks me out.

I'm trying to picture the photographic hardware it would take to get these shots back then.

Schaefer cards also haven’t lost a series.

Love it!!

Wow, I guessed that Carrasco pretty much had Pitcher of the Month sewn up, but I thought Player of the Month would be a three-way dogfight among Alonso, Lindor, and Guillorme.

Turned out that Walker challenged Carrasco pretty nicely, and that Guillorme barely appeared in the field at all. A .414 monthly batting average sure doesn't buy what it used to.

Pete takes pride that 1971 Topps portrayed him in the field.

Great for Khalil, and hopefully the first of many POM cards to come!

Khalil Lee, how 'bout that. Well done so as always.

Great cards, as usual. I would have been tempted to sneak in a #lfgm
into the Polar Petey card.

Taijuan Walker appears circumspect regarding Pete Alonso’s action. And, man, it’s good to see Edwin Diaz smiling.

Welcome to the big time, Khalil!

I'm tempted to photoshop a sandbox around him.

Like, really tempted.

Amazingly, Diaz is going to be kept from sweeping the RotM awards for the 2022 season ... by Chasen Shreve.

You need to do more Max.
I don't think I want to live in a world where you have the same number of Pitcher of the Month awards as Alay Soler.

To me, the real outlier is Rich Hill.

I like the picture of and how it fits in the Nido card, makes him look
larger than life. Fun stuff, as always.

I would have liked an advance peek at this card quartet four summers ago. “You mean the Mets have Scherzer, Lindor and that hot young closer from Seattle…and we still have the same backup catcher?”

Pretty wild considering Alonso did not make the board

Lindor had a much better month. (Look at the slash numbers.) And so did Marte!
