Card Collector from mid-80's to early 90's. This is what I would have blogged about back then. Cards are my own.

Rickey's slim fit jersey
'85 Topps is one of my favorite sets. I just like the look. I also liked the green jerseys that the A's wore. Notice the fit with Rickey. It's a little more snug than anyone would wear today, but he looks natural.
I remember seeing this card and being so pissed that he was a Yankee. At least he came back to Oakland a few more times during his epic career.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt. I believe he showed up in pinstripes in the '85 Topps Traded set.
