Not sure about the other players, I will have to do some research. There is some writing on the back, listing the players, but it is kind of hard to read.

I think I just filled a very tough hole in my Maine collection.

If anyone recognizes other players, feel free to let me know.

It is an old picture so one of them has to be Joe Jackson.

Time travel must be real because the guy in the back row with the headband sure looks like a young Joe Mantegna.

On a serious note that is a great addition to your Maine player collection.

Hahaha. I don't even know what Joe Jackson looks like. I would probably look right past him in an old photo.

Nothing really big, but I have a game used baseball from Phil Niekro's 250th career win. I have been searching for a ticket or a stub from that game for a while now. I happened to find a lot of 25 stubs from the game on Ebay.
