100% Larry Burright. That wad of chaw in the cheek was his signature.

Great shot too. Burright is one of the guys who's gone from "very few Topps shots as a Met" to "scads of them" in recent years. (He's wearing a Dodger uni in his lone Mets Topps card.) Greg Harts has followed the same weird path.

Here's hoping that Vinegar Bend Mizell and Tom Sturdivant are the next to travel this collecting road.
