I blogged earlier about my 1000 card vintage pickup. Now if you like, join me as I show you some of the 1978's I picked up!

189 1978's in all. Let take a look at some of my favorites

2 Vintage sox. One looks all business, the other looks to be having a blast

I'm a sucker for rookie Pitcher. Apparantly 78 topps was a sucker for A's Rookie Pitchers

I vote for you Pedro

Who ya got in your lineup today skip?

Great name. Is the Kremlin in Moskau?

O Rozema, You're Rookie Cup Runneth Over

He looks more "Most interesting man in the world" ish than Mad Hungarian in this card.

I don't picture these guys as Rangers

Just a great shot of a guy who could catch fire at the plate.

I've been working on my 1978 Topps autograph collection for years. I have about 45 auto'd cards from that year. Many more to go....

Mendoza is the one that established the "Mendoza line", according to baseball announcers, which is a batting average of .200 (or less). Nice looking '78 cards.
