Munger-he looks like he is about to steal a car!

All of 'em. I was ten years old, and lived and died with the Bucs. Mainly died, a lot. My favorite is Kiner, since he's the only one among them who could hit it clear out of the infield. And he looks like a hitter in this shot.

Some pretty good young players on that team. Friend, and Law (and Gus Bell and Dick Groat, though not pictured). And of course Joe G. But for ugly, nobody touches Bill Howerton, who looks a lot like Lurch. Research -- was hitting .320 when the Bucs waived him in May. Go Bucs.

And don't forget Catfish Metkovich, who, in the other set issued in '52, was #310, right before #311, that Mantle kid.

54.5 out? Wow, Clemente can't come soon enough. I am going with Munger. He's up to something plus the stands behind him look weird like there is no lower deck.
