I have an original 1954 Team photo if you are looking for something nice to buy alongside it 😉.

I always liked the 1967 Dexter Press postcards and premiums.

I would do the Hartland Statue. But go with the original version.... not the cheaper remake. You won't regret it.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/25630339670...Bk9SR6zXsLj9Yg It's a great likeness of Hammerin' Hank, and these vintage "playing days" statues display magnificently alongside the cards. Best of luck, whichever direction you go.

I like the Hartland idea best for sure, but if you also wanted a backdrop for the two I would look for an auto'ed copy of the April 20, 1974 Sporting News. I just think the duo of Hank and Babe with the 715 would be cooler than the SI issue.
Granted the cover artist used was no Da Vinci, but I like the size and nice foxing on a paper just looks cool and period.

Here's a few photos, another card and two Sports Illustrateds. I think any of them would make a nice display, however I especially like the photo of a young Hank at the train station. Maybe that one and another one of him hitting 715, sort of bookending his career.
Wonderful displays that you already have.

From the picture of the collection, I see four magazines and five books. To keep the literary theme going, I would suggest a copy of “I had a Hammer: The Hank Aaron Story”.
https://www.amazon.com/Had-Hammer-Ha.../dp/0060163216 The card coupled with the Hartland statue and the hardcover book, would make a nice vignette.
