Angels on High ... A Wonder

For some time I've pondered profoundly about these two cards. That they are both ANGELS maybe just a coincidence ... but maybe not.

Sports have had their share of miracles ... the 1969 Mets, the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey Team ... to name a few.

Is that the Himalayan Mountains behind Rod Carew ? Is there a secret Guru up there in Nepal ?
The magic obviously doesn't work for everyone ... as Billy Cowen found out - even though he wore a halo on his 1972 topps card. Maybe he had a higher calling after baseball.
Just random thoughts ...

I love that Billy Cowan card. Always nice to see the Halo getting some love.
