Sometimes I troll the necrology sites in the hopes of finding photos of minor leaguers that would otherwise not surface.
Clifford Copeland passed away on June 17. He played but one season of pro ball in the minor league chain of the Indians. A pitcher, he went 2-7 split between Fargo-Moorhead and Vidalia in 1956 following 4 years of service in the military. After the season, he decided baseball didn't offer much of a career guarantee and opted for college instead. He got a pharmaceutical degree and began working for the Liggett Rexall chain in Atlanta. While there, he noticed how much additional business the chain did when they offered 20% off coupons for Sunday shopping. In 1960, he opened his own drug store, undercutting his competition by 20% every day. Copeland Drugs expanded to 42 stores, mostly in Georgia, Florida, and Alabama.
The baseball photo, here, isn't the greatest. But, hey, how many images of Clifford Copeland, minor league pitcher, have you seen? Also attached are a portrait (possibly high school) and an image of Mr. Copeland the pharmacist.
