2003 Vintage Cubs

The 2003 version of Vintage used the Topps 1965 set as its inspiration.  And this time, the set included not only current players, but retired ones too.  The two retired Cubs had 1965 Topps cards, so we can put them side by side to see what exactly UD borrowed from Topps.

 

 

The Vintage picture of Ernie Banks is better than the side shot on the Topps card.  But Topps has a better picture of Billy as the one Upper Deck used is four to five years past 1965.
