vintage week carries over because I don't have time to post on weekends!
today's gem is a 1965 Topps Mack Jones. No word on whether his nickname was "Knife" or not...
Mack was such a badass that he didn't bother with stuffing his back pockets with batting gloves... he put his fielding glove in there.
in 1964 Mack led the International league in homers, (42) RBI's, (113) and was third in batting average, (.317)
not too shabby.
still needed for my '65 Topps Braves set...
#170, 200, 287, 305, 383, 426, 461, 476, 487, 500, 520, 542, 567, 585
