1976 SSPC Wilbur Howard

 

The card, in brief: Howard's big gap-tooth smile always sticks out on his card.

Playing career, in brief: Howard split between outfield and pitching early in his minor league career, before dropping pitching after the 1969 season. In six seasons, mostly with Houston, Howard played in 466 games, hitting .250 with 6 HR, 71 RBI and 60 SB.

 Post-playing career, in brief: Howard kept a very low profile after his playing career. He died in 2022.

My collection: I have nine of his cards, from 1974 to 1979. I would be interested in trading for  1979 TCMA Charleston Charlies #17.
