Default People in the background

Interesting thought Chuck. Wonder how many folks have identified themselves or someone they know if the background of a card. Your cop and the guy in the LaRussa card would be examples. Wonder if anyone ever identified the guy airbrushed in the 57 Mantle card? Another good one would be the 65 card that says it shows Mantle hitting a home runoff Barney Schultz in the 64 WS, but really shows him missing a Gibson fastball. That picture appeared in a lot of papers and a lot of fans behind home plate are in the picture.

That Koosman rookie card is stunning :-)
