I’ve always gotten a kick out of the airbrushed cap on the 1978 Topps Pat Scanlon card.
Take a look:
Awesome! I love the “stroke patterns” like a fine painting! Killer!
Overall it’s not a bad job all things considered. Actually I’d say the
1978 set has some of the best airbrushing jobs of the decade (Ray Fosse,
Elliott Maddox).
Ironically, Pat Scanlon would never play in the Major Leagues again
after the 1977 season, closing out a 4-year career that saw him suit up
for the Montreal Expos between 1974-1976, and the San Diego Padres in
1977.
He finished with a .187 career average with 41 hits in 219 at-bats over 120 games.
