The 792: Gallery 163-180

Ok, I've finally gotten these things scanned. Most of them at least. So here's another installation of The 792, Ben Henry's theoretical "best of the decade" set for the 1980's. The complete list can be found on his site, Ben's commentary on his choices for these cards is here. With no further ado, here's another page in my '80's binder.

163. Cal Ripken, Jr., 1983 *
164A+B. Greg Pryor, 1980**
165. Robin Yount, 1988
166. Dickie Thon, 1986

* Thanks to reader Greg for providing the scans of these cards.

** I'm looking for any information I can get on the 1980 red/yellow variations. If anyone has a clue what these things are, please shoot me an e-mail or leave an answer in the comments. Thanks.

I love this. Just thought I'd point out a typo in "Fariss"...just one "r".
