1972 Topps Fergie Jenkins

1972 Topps Fergie Jenkins

I was able to grab this 1972 Topps Fergie Jenkins card for a very low price and am surprised as to how great the condition of the card is in since it’s 37+ years old!!

While the ‘72 Topps set is not on my ‘favorites list’, it’s nice to add another of the missing pieces to my Fergie Jenkins player collection.  Now I am just 2 cards away from having every Fergie Jenkins card issued during the 1970’s.  I am hoping to wrap up this decade’s set of cards within the next few weeks.

For me, the ‘72 design screams ‘Disco’.  And although that may be premature by a few years before  the disco craze hit the US, the color scheme and graphic details certainly are reminiscent and should remain in the 70’s.
