Johnson's trying to avoid looking at any of the stains on the cover.
Johnson went to San Diego High School, which as produced 17 NFLers.
Nice Yankee Stadium shot here.
The Hank Aaron reference is fun. The other day a reader left a comment, mentioning an internet debate over whether Chris Speier or Johnny Logan was the best shortstop to play with Aaron with the Braves or Mays with the Giants. Personally I think Alvin Dark had better numbers than either of them.
Deron ended up having a pretty solid career. Got to Oakland in time to get a ring, too
ReplyDeleteA few years ago I bought and wrote about this set. Johnson was one of the six guys on the checklist that I was not familiar with. Thing is... I see his 1974 Topps card with the A's every time I flip through my vintage binder.
