Why does everyone want 1976 Bake McBride

[braves1047]

I have a 1976 Bake McBride #135 in my topps million card give away account. I have got tons of request for this card. Nothing really that great. I have checked on ebay and beckett pricing and it is not a high value. Just wonder why such high trade request for this card.

Maybe because of one of those Topps Million contests?

I requested that card early on.

Why? Because the McBride rookie and the Shooty Babitt rookie are two or the three cards I wanted. The other was the 1989 Randy Johnson...and I picked that up on the second day that trading went live.
