Continuing with the lot of 1974-75 Topps cards I recently picked up, here's another gem. If I had to choose one word to describe Mike Corrigan and his haircut, I'm not sure if I would go with "slow" or "medieval". The pen marks on either side of the Kings name just add to this card in my opinion. Could the photographer have tried any less to get a decent photo?
That haircut probably got him a lot of ladies back in 1974.
Anyway, I did email ya a list of Fleer Ultra cards that you need--I got 120 of the ones you need set aside for you. I'm at school all day today, but will email you the #s again tonight or tomorrow.
