Harmon Clayton Killebrew Jr. (/ˈkɪlɪbruː/; June 29, 1936 – May 17, 2011), nicknamed ’The Killer’ and ’Hammerin’ Harmon’, was an American professional baseball first baseman, third baseman, and left fielder. He was a prolific power hitter who spent most of his 22-year career in Major League Baseball with the Minnesota Twins. At the time of his retirement Killebrew had the fourth-most home runs in major league history. He was second only to Babe Ruth in American League (AL) home runs, and was the AL career leader in home runs by a right-handed batter. Killebrew was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1984.

    1. Nice. I am not sure about the black line down the side on some of these ‘62 cards. Was there some sort of guide line for cutting them or something. Hmmm.

  1. Look at guy in dugout… did he take his hat off as swing happening or photo from touch before or something. Lol.
