Joe Torre, 1962 Topps #218
this is one of my favorite cards from the set. It took a long time and a decent investment to acquire. It's a beautiful picture and a nice layout. Torre still seems to look the same.
Two Braves related things that most forget is that a) Torre was one of the best hitters in the game for several years, and b) he managed the Braves (with far less success than the Yankees later) in the early '80's.
Classic card.
