1968 Topps #94 Lee Maye
A look-alike of this card was issued in the 1968 Milton Bradley Win-A-Card game: same front and same number, but a bright yellow back in place of the standard orange.
About Lee Maye
In 1968, the year of the pitcher, Maye batted .281 in 109 games for the Indians, his best average since his Houston days. Card 94 comes from the first series. It does have a twin worth knowing: Topps supplied cards to Milton Bradley for the Win-A-Card game that year, and those copies carry the same photo and the same number but a bright yellow back instead of the usual orange, sometimes with a thin white line along a border edge. The game copies are far scarcer than the pack-issued card.
Arthur Lee Maye was an outfielder who spent thirteen big-league seasons between 1959 and 1971, most of them with the Milwaukee Braves, followed by the Houston Astros, Cleveland Indians, Washington Senators, and Chicago White Sox. Born in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and raised in Los Angeles, he made the All-City team at Jefferson High School and signed with the Braves out of school in June 1954. He batted left, threw right, and was one of the fastest men in the game, timed under ten seconds in the 100-yard dash and successful on 38 of 44 stolen base attempts from 1960 through 1963. He won the Braves' left field job in 1961 and had his best year in 1964, when he led the National League with 44 doubles and batted .304. Shoulder, knee, and back injuries and a 1962 respiratory illness kept interrupting him. Away from the park he was a working rhythm and blues singer under his full name, leading the Los Angeles doo-wop group Arthur Lee Maye and the Crowns and recording as a solo act for decades. He finished at .274 with 94 home runs and 419 runs batted in, and died in Riverside, California, in 2002.
