1967 Topps #250 Hank Aaron


About Hank Aaron
Three 1967 cards report Aaron's first season in Atlanta: the RBI leaders card #242 with Clemente and Allen, the home run leaders card #244 with Allen and Mays, and his series-3 base card #250. He hit only .279 in 1966 but led the National League in both home runs, with 44, and RBI, with 127, the third of his four home run titles. He also collected his 400th career homer that April, off the Phillies' Bo Belinsky at Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia, in the Braves' first season in Atlanta.
Henry Louis Aaron broke in with the Milwaukee Braves in 1954 out of Mobile, Alabama, after a brief stop in the Negro American League with the Indianapolis Clowns. A right fielder who batted and threw right-handed, he spent 21 seasons with the Braves and two with the Milwaukee Brewers, retiring in 1976 with a .305 average, 3,771 hits and 2,297 RBI, still the major-league record. He won the NL batting title twice (1956, 1959), led the league in home runs four times, and took the 1957 NL MVP award as the Braves won the World Series. A 25-time All-Star and three-time Gold Glove winner, he was called Hank by Braves public relations director Don Davidson, who thought the shorter name made the quiet young star more accessible; teammates turned it into Hammerin' Hank. On April 8, 1974, in Atlanta, he hit his 715th home run to pass Babe Ruth as the career leader, a record he held until 2007 while enduring racist threats throughout the pursuit. Aaron finished with 755 home runs and holds career marks for RBI, extra-base hits and total bases. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1982, his first year of eligibility, with 97.8% of the vote, and afterward held Braves front office roles, including senior vice president. He died in 2021.
