New in the Gallery: Interactive 1964 Topps Oakland Raiders Team Card
October 8th, 2011 | Published in Interactive Team Cards, New in the Gallery, Player Deaths, Record Holders | 1 Comment
In honor of Al Davis, who passed away today, I added an interactive 1964 Topps Oakland Raiders team card to the Vintage Football Card Gallery. The card pictures the 1963 Raiders team, which Davis coached to a 10-4 record. That was the Raiders’ first winning season, and Davis was named the AFL Coach of the Year.
As always, I learned a few things while assembling the interactive card. One thing I learned is that one of the players pictured, Tom Morrow, holds the NFL record for most consecutive games with an interception. As far as I know, Morrow never appeared on a card by himself.

Great card, Mike. I love the ’64 Topps team cards. I am fortunate to have one signed by Davis. It is one of my favorites.
