Not a bad selection for the stars of the day. Don't remember if I had to chow down on two boxes to get these two cards, but here they are anyway:
#4 - Frank Viola
#20 - Kirby Puckett
Frank's pretty cool with the black cap, while Kirby looks a little bummed. Here's the backs for completeness:
Not bad. I like the complete stats and the extra info.
Something seems familiar with the Puckett card...here's the Topps flagship version:

It's almost like they just tilted the camera or something. Not the most flattering picture for one of the greats of the day.
Anyway, that's it for now. Enjoy the Oscars tomorrow...thanks for reading!
