Set: Topps (Rate)

Card: #57 Mike Morgan


“ it isn't too often you see a cartoon on the front of the card! ” -Billy Kingsley

“ He doesn't look all that vicious. Did the Saints have bounties on opponents in 1971? ” -switzr1

“ Classic Topps FB. Ahhh the 70's.....3 years with the Skins & Saints, yet he's got his Philly uniform on. ” -Kaline6

“ Nice card, ” -uncaian

“ This was my favorite football set as a kid, very colorful. I picked up a lot of these from an older kid on our street, as the first football cards I bought in packs was 1976 ” -CluelessJoe

“ So very very good!!! ” -carthage44

“ One of my favorite Vintage Football sets. Loved them since I got them fresh from the packs back then. I loved (and still do love) the little cartoon position character. I also get a kick (pardon the pun) how back then topps didn't bother airbrushing players into their new uniforms. A shame that his "old" uniform is actually from two teams and two years ago. (From the 1971 perspective not from today). I really really need to complete this set along with a zillion others from the '60s and '70s and whenever. ” -captkirk42

“ Love vintage cards, any sport. 1971 is one of my favs. The little cartoon football players on the front and the small cartoons on the back....love 'em!! Good old lazy Topps. The photo is from no later than 1967 when he was an Eagle. ” -C2Cigars

Interesting note for this guy...this was his only card...ever. (or at least only card in the data base).
