1976 SSPC Vic Correll

 

The card, in brief: I don't know if Vic Correll is scowling because he's trying to look tough, he's annoyed at the photographer, or he's disgusted that he's just a .215 hitter.

Playing career, in brief: Correll was coming off his only 100+ game season in 1975, when the catcher hit .215 with 11 HR and 39 RBI. Overall in 410 games over eight seasons with Boston, Atlanta and Cincinnati, he hit .229 with 29 HR and 125 RBI.

Post playing career, in brief: After his playing career he lived in Georgia, working on plantations where he trained dogs and led hunting groups. He is now retired and lives in Perry, GA.

My collection: I have eight of his cards, from 1975 to 1981. I would be interested in trading for 1978 Indianapolis Indians #19.
