Item Description
2.5x3.5". The 1974 Topps Baseball set consists of 660 cards. For the first time, Topps issued the set all at once at the beginning of the year, rather than by series throughout the baseball season as had been done since 1952. The set features color photos with the player's name, team and position. Specialty cards abound, starting with a Hank Aaron tribute (Aaron's #1 All-Time Home Run card difficult to secure), and running through the usual managers, statistical leaders, playoff and World Series highlights, multi-player rookie cards and All-Stars. With its tally reaching 660, the cards were printed in equal quantities, eliminating "Short Prints" or "High Numbers."

David Gene Parker, nicknamed "The Cobra," is an American former professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball as a right fielder from 1973 to 1991. A seven-time All-Star, Parker won two National League batting titles and was the 1978 National League Most Valuable Player. He was a member of two World Series championship winning teams with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1979 and the Oakland Athletics in 1989. He is a member of both the Pittsburgh Pirates and Cincinnati Reds Halls Of Fame.
