Custom Card of the Day: Billy Butler 1988 Topps 2 comments
Billy Butler was named AL Player of the Week today. This is a big honor because the team was terrible during that stretch. While his numbers weren’t staggering (.458 average, 1 HR, 6 RBI) they were still impressive. He continues to be a great hitter and a rare bright spot for the Kansas City Royals. The picture with the facebook article was cool so it inspired me to do a custom card. I thought since his hand was higher than his head it would make a nice 1988 card so it would break into the team name at the top.

So here is the first two placemats of the second and final series released. You can see that these are a little different visually. The big Royals crown is featured instead of simply the script “Royals” being the centerpiece. Once again these are by the same artist John Boyd Martin. This set’s pictures are also noticeably different. 3 of the 7 pictures on each placemat are headshots. This makes them clearly distinguishable from the first series of mats. Once again it was a set of four and the first two are here, I will post the final two tomorrow.
