If you’ve visited the Aaron exhibit at the Atlanta History Center, an enlargement greets you as you enter the section on Aaron’s Milwaukee Braves years.

This has GOT to be one of the earliest photos of Aaron, no? Beautiful photo.
I saw a couple of Type 1s get auctioned off recently -- those were from 1952 or so, when he was getting on a train to go to a minor league team (Indianapolis Clowns?). I even put in a couple of bids -- which ended up like 5-10x below the hammer price, or something embarrassing like that.
