Nice catch!
I actually ended up on CincinnatiViews, but I didn't see the group shots. Yeah, I guess Henderson was a prospect who didn't make it. He was 19 at the time, in his second year of pro ball. I guess as a 6'2" lefty, they had hopes for him (he had a good year at Peninsula in '64, but struggled at higher levels), but I'm still surprised that Topps took (or archived) the picture; it's the first minor-leaguer I've seen in the archive.
Thanks jwisenberg. (Btw, Darrell Osteen was a righty.)
