Thanks for the trade Chuck!

Blog Trade #34: Chuck's Used Cards
I recently completed a blind trade with Chuck over at Chuck's Used Cards, who ended up sending me a smorgasbord of cardboard. Here are a few of the cards that really stood out:
However my favorite in the lot was this 1973 Topps card of Mr. Hendrick:

Glad you got the cards. I hope there was something you can use - or trade. I've set aside a few other cards earmarked for the West Coast. Arigato !
Ahh, George Hendrick. He was one of the best offensive players on the Cardinals for a few years in the early 1980's. I used to wear my 1982 Cardinals champions shirt around my college campus in the mid 1980's and there was a guy who would always want to talk Cardinals baseball with me in the computer lab. I remember in the winter of 1984-85 he was lamenting to me how terrible it was that the Cardinals had traded away Hendrick - "What do they need with John Tudor?". Tudor then proceeded to go 21-8 with 1.93 ERA and 10 shutouts to lead the Cardinals to the World Series (where they painfully lost in 7). Never ran into that guy again.
There are some MLS interesting cards. I've seen just a few. Is that an insert?
Thanks for the trade!
I remember that trade. Tudor was a beast that year.
Hmmm... not sure. But it's a cool San Jose Clash card.
Those A's unis are killer.
