Speaking of which...

The '60s outfielder lasted quite awhile, even had two full seasons as an everyday starter for the Senators (oddly, splitting his time among all three positions in each). There are some images of his first two stints (1959, 1963) with the Orioles, and a lot of him in the black-based Senators unis of 1964-67.

But until now I've never seen any color of him taken in his final season, 1968. Still never seen him in the cartoon bird cap he donned after returning to Baltimore, but at least there is this admittedly weak game-action image of Valentine in the brand new red Washington uniform style which debuted in Spring Training '68.

Anybody ever seen him in color in a '68 Oriole uni?
