I’m collecting the 1973 set, slowly but surely. This post is the latest in my quest for the completion. 
- Card Facts – Terry Forster – Chicago White Sox – Card # 129
- Purchase Price – $.33 (Ebay lot, 7/$2.34)
- On the back (toon) – Terry likes to go skiing.
- “One of Terry’s most impressive efforts of 1972 occurred in Cleveland, July 11th. He relieved Rich Gossage with one out in the 7th inning and hurled the final 2 2/3 innings of the game. He was credited with his 12th save of the season, protecting Chisox’ 4-3 victory which was credited to Gossage. Terry had his best curveball of the season that game, he allowed Tribe only one hit and fanned three in his short stint.”
