Geez,I'm looking at that card and thinking "I don't recall that card in 1973 Topps!" until I read your caption! I thought I was having memory loss for a second there.

Is that the design of 73 topps?
Not for the regular player cards but it is the design for an 8 card subset called All Time Leaders #471 thru #478. They are quite a popular group with the biggest of the big names on them. Here is what one of them looks like.
Those are cool... did they not consider doubles that important or what?!?!
That's the only one of the subset I am missing. I keep losing out at auction for it.
What's the average sell price if u don't mind me asking...?
Not sure. My bidding limit for a solid mid-grade exmt is $14, so I think it books for about $30 nm. Worth asking on the price check forum.
Hey that's not bad!
So... what's your opinion on letting players wear these in games now if they so chose???

What makes that card a 4? Looks better than that.
The last regular Topps player card of Sonny. Oddly enough he appears 3 years later in the 1975 Topps NFL Passing Leader card with Ken Anderson of the Bengals. I'm not sure why he did not have a card in 1973, 1974 or 1975 if he played enough to be the NFC Pasing Leader in '74.
One other oddity with one of his cards. In 1965 his Philadelphia card shows him holding the football where you could clearly read "The Duke" . I assumed he did that because he went to college at Duke. I never heard a reference to "The Duke" until decades later when Jon Gruden would say "Protect the Duke". And just now after nearly 60 years of wondering, I moments ago looked up the NFL football's "The Duke" reference and it was named after former New York Giants owner Wellington Mara who had that same nickname. I was surprised to hear that NFL footballs still have that on them to this day.
So once again I am rambling on about some vintage card. But amazingly I did ths while listening to music from Within Temptation's 2023 album! One foot in the past, one in the present and no feet in the future. I amaze myself somethimes! LMAO!!,

That's a good point. There are no creases, and the corners seem decent. There is some discoloration on the front (that you can see some of) which must have knocked it down.

I traded this card away back in 2018 for some reason... must have really wanted something! Welp, I got it back finally!
