1975 Topps

Dick Ruthven

Each day we feature something from our collection of childhood bubblegum memories. For those who remember them, these baseball cards have their own stories to tell.

What does this card bring to mind for you? Please share in the comments!

We would love to hear from you. Send a Tweet to @baseballisms with a quick message, send us an email or visit our Upload page with a video message. We look forward to growing a community of fans interested in the poetry of the game of baseball!

The 1975 set was my least favorite design. Seems like not a lot of thought went into it.

Ron, I know what you mean. Each team had a some crazy multi tone color scheme going on. Ironically though, this was right in my wheelhouse for collecting and is the series I have the most cards from still.
