Stan Williams 1958 (in 1972)

This is NOT a Brace but it was in the big collection.

It's a Greg Tucker. All of these shots from 1970-73 next to the third base dugout at Yankee Stadium were done by him. He sold them in ads in The Trader Speaks, and many wound up in the 1975 SSPC 42-card set and even a few in the 1976 SSPC 630-card set.

And this is a white whale for at least one poster here. Stan Williams, in a Red Sox uni, in color, as a player and not a coach, from his three-game stint with Boston in 1972. The Sox signed him to a minor league deal in June, switched from flannel home uniforms to double knits in June, brought up Williams in late July, pitched him in New York on July 29, released him on August 4, and somewhere in that last week switched from the road flannels to the road double knits.

And thus, Stan Williams in an actual 1972 Red Sox uni:
