Ike Delock (1952), John Donaldson (1966), Derrell Griffith (1963), Jim Nash (1966)
Two requests - Delock with the '63 Orioles and Nash with the '72 Phillies.
And two recent acquisitions (I'm sure you recognize the photographer) that it's almost impossible to believe exist.
Derrell Griffith went from the Dodgers to the Mets in the Tommy Davis/Ron Hunt deal in the winter of 1966 and was then traded on to the Astros for Sandy Alomar on March 24, 1967. Other than the Met spring training team picture I've never seen any shot of him in a New York uniform, let alone in color. I don't want to make any undue comparisons, but this one being in the collection I obtained, absolutely floored me.
And Donaldson is shown during the experiment, of only a few days, in which the A's players wore the "coaches' cap" white design worn by their managers and coaches roughly 1966-79. There are a few more of these, I'll try to post.
