The story on this card
As a 27-year-old rookie, Gibson made his major league debut on April 14, 1967, catching fellow rookie Billy Rohr, who took a no-hitter into the ninth inning before Elston Howard broke it up. Gibson batted .203 in 49 games and caught Game 1 of that fall's World Series against St. Louis. His 1967 Topps card, #547, is a high-number Rookie Stars card from the seventh print series, shared with Bill Rohr and recognized as Gibson's rookie card, and one of the accepted double prints from that high-number run. A ten-year minor leaguer who finally made the majors with his hometown Red Sox in 1967, catching Billy Rohr's near no-hitter on debut day and sharing backstop duties through the 1967 pennant run.
Rohr's 1967 Topps rookie card, #547, is part of the high-number Rookie Stars series closing out the set alongside fellow Red Sox rookie Russ Gibson. The card arrived the same year Rohr made his sensational major league debut, taking a no-hitter into the ninth inning against the Yankees on Opening Day before Elston Howard's single broke it up in a 3-0 win. Billy Rohr made his major league debut on Opening Day 1967 at Yankee Stadium, carrying a no-hitter into the ninth against the Yankees before a single broke it up; his career lasted parts of two seasons with Boston and Cleveland.

Frequently asked questions
What is the 1967 Topps #547 card?
It is card #547 of the 609-card 1967 Topps Baseball set, picturing Russ Gibson and Bill Rohr. This is one of the 43 Rookie Stars cards in the set, each pairing two prospects. Thirty-nine are titled by club; #569, #576, #587 and #592 carry a league title and cover two clubs each.
Is 1967 Topps #547 a rookie card?
Yes - #547 is a rookie card for every player pictured on it: Russ Gibson and Bill Rohr.
Is 1967 Topps #547 a scarce card?
It is a high number card from the seventh and last print series, #534-609 - the scarce end of the set, holding both Hall of Fame rookies (Carew #569, Seaver #581). Twenty-two of the 76 are accepted double prints, so scarcity varies card by card inside the run. It is also a double print card (26 cards: #1, #30, #100, the #531 checklist and 22 high numbers). Cards printed twice on the sheet, so more plentiful than their neighbours: #1 The Champs, #30 Al Kaline, #100 Frank Robinson, the #531 seventh-series checklist, and 22 of the 76 high numbers (#534, 537, 539, 542, 547, 548, 550, 551, 554, 556, 559, 562, 564, 566, 569, 582, 588, 589, 596, 599, 601, 608), Carew #569 included. A high number that is also a double print is easier than its series suggests.
