I have seen the Mike Martin photo on other cards. The German Barranca and Horace Clarke cards are upgrades to previous cards. Who knew Sam Perlozzo played for the Padres? How is your recognition today?

Horace Clarke I remember well as a Yankee. I remember Barranca, too, mostly because you don't forget a name like "German Barranca".
Clarke, Perlozzo and Patterson went on to appear on junk wax everywhere as a member of the Pirates.
