Greg Washburn 1969
Lots of '60s players from lots of towns with great names (Jim McAndrew: Lost Nation, Iowa) and Greg Washburn was competitive - Coal City, Illinois.
He got eight appearances in two stints with the '69 Angels, and shared a Topps rookie card in 1970 (straying off the topic, the photo of the other fella on that card, Wally Wolf, was originally used in the 1963 set!). That card is the only color shot I've ever seen of him.
But here are two good images from the Brace collection. The prints had faded color, to say nothing of scotch tape on them; I've cleaned them up as best I could.
