1977 Topps, Mike Cuellar

Card No. 162

A lot of folks go in for '75 Topps as their favorite design of the '70s, but I've never been conventional and, therefore, consider the '77 set as my favorite in terms of aesthetics....This happens to be the final entry for Mike Cuellar in the Topps catalog....His rookie appeared in the 1959 set as a member of the Reds....The '69 A.L. Cy Young Award winner and author of four 20-win seasons, Cuellar's career unceremoniously concluded in 1977 with the California Angels (0-1, 18.90 ERA in 2 appearances).
