⚾ Fun Fact: The back of this very card notes that Hank led the NL with a .355 batting average in 1959 — a handwritten callout right on the card itself. By the time this card was printed in 1966, Aaron had already accumulated over 1,800 games and 400+ home runs, yet his greatest record — 755 career home runs — was still nearly a decade away.
