Anyway Topps must have shot him in camp in 1977 with St. Louis, as this full image from his 1978 paint job shows.
Hey Dewey, while I realize that you have a pic of Mike Dimmel for your "project, I wasn't sure if you felt this was a upgrade since it came from the Vault. This happens to me all the time in my project except I then have a physical card that gets replaced.
