Anyone know of an earlier baseball card showing prescription glasses than 1922 American Caramel Specs Toporcer? @imaginarysports.bsky.social

Your Cards of the Day: Topps had issues with Lou Berberet in 1958. First, his photo was used on Milt Boling's card. Then, Lou still had a Senators' cap on his card with the Red Sox. The erroneous Bolling photo and Lou's 1957 snapshot were taken in close sequence. @sabrbbcards.bsky.social

Good morning! Three colors of 1958 Topps on Page 16, and the opposite ratio of portraits to posed shots as page 15. Billy Martin sighting.

I love these, but if I were a collector in 1958, would I have complained that these were an unoriginal (and smaller!) rehash of 1954? Probably!

Your Cards of the Day: Seattle Pilots opening day center fielder Jim Gosger received a card on the Giants with a photo taken in spring training 1970. However, Jim was sold to the Expos and never played in SF. He did maintain the same pose throughout the transaction. @sabrbbcards.bsky.social
