Featuring the Atlanta Braves outfielder with his signature smile and bat resting on his shoulder, this card leaps out with its vibrant retro arched border typography. Rico "The Beep" Carty was one of the most feared pure hitters of his generation. He won the 1970 National League batting title with an incredible .366 average—the highest single-season average recorded in the 1970s. This card stands as a testament to his incredible hitting eye and power production in the heart of Atlanta's lineup alongside Hank Aaron.

The reverse side lists his impressive career milestones in both English and French over a dark yellow background. The text honors his .322 lifetime average and his mastery over National League pitching squads up to that point.
