Jim Roland 1962; Good News, Bad News

EBay seller kingfisch6 has posted a good many Brace photos among dozens of pro and college publications, and a handful of them are truly scarce images. Among them is the first color shot I have seen of Jim Roland with his final MLB team, the Texas Rangers, in 1972. He pitched in only five games with them -- his third team that season. Previously had seen a legit B&W headshot, but this is a true Brace -- which is to say, out of focus, badly lit and not mindful of the player's pose. I'd say the only thing worse that Brace putting this out was anyone who paid for a print. At least on eBay you can see for yourself. For the record ...
