1973 Topps

Luis Alvarado

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!

Been loving the cards! 1973 not only one of my all time favs…it took me a decade to complete. I just posted a story the other day how dear Mother threw out not one…but two of my collections. Oh the pain; the agony!
