Still More of My Favorite Pose
December 13th, 2010 | Published in Uniforms | 3 Comments
Here is one last group of players in my favorite pose, about to put on their helmets. (For more of these, see My Favorite Pose and More of My Favorite Pose.)
This time we have a 1969 Topps Joe Scarpati and a 1967 Topps Johnny Robinson:
A 1968 Topps Andy Russell rookie and a 1966 Philadelphia Roger LeClerc:
A 1965 Philadelphia Dick Schafrath and a 1967 Philadelphia Willie Davis:
Unfortunately, the photographers from many teams–notably the AFL teams–never used this pose, so in this series I could feature cards from only about half the teams. That’s a pity: I love Pat Patriot and Denver’s drunk Bronco, and it would have been nice to include them.

Are you sure they didn’t just take their helmets off? 😉

You know, I never considered that!
