Dave Parker 1981 Topps
I tell you what, I am not a Pittsburgh Pirates fan, but those hats that the team wore in the early 1980s really take me back to my youth as a collector.
From Bill Madlock to Kent Tekulve to Johnny Ray to the ‘Cobra’, Mr. Dave Parker!!!
Topps did a solid job of memorializing that cap on their 1981 issue.
Have a look:
I wonder if the team would break these out again during a ‘Throwback Series’. Maybe they already have…
they have but the new guys don’t wear them the same way cobra pops and the lumber co. have…
Happy Thanksgiving. Brian.
Thank You David. You too!
Too bad they didn’t use black instead of green at the top. It would have made the card pop.
Still a sweet card!
