Pictured with the powerhouse Oakland Athletics, Fingers was entering the period that would transform both his career and the role of the relief pitcher itself. The wonderfully eccentric \u003cstrong\u003e1972 Topps design\u003c\/strong\u003e, with its bold lettering and unmistakable early-’70s personality, makes this an especially fun early-career card of a future Hall of Famer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen comes the grade: \u003cstrong\u003ePSA GEM MINT 10\u003c\/strong\u003e.
