  1. Seriously, this is tough. As much as I love the Bevacqua bubble gum card, Pete Rose just stared me down until I caved and voted for him.

  2. This was a tough one for me too. The Pete Rose card was one of the most coveted cards in my neighborhood.

  3. Without that Bazooka bat-and-ball compass to measure, I could've sworn they airbrushed that bubble onto Kurt's face. He gets my vote!

  4. My vote is for Bevacqua. For two reasons:
    1) He didn't cheat in the gum contest. :)
    2) This was the card that completed my 76 set.
