Henry Aaron July 1974 Pro Sports Magazine Cover
Description
A color slide of the cover of the July 1974 edition of Pro Sports magazine showing a full-length photograph of Henry Aaron batting. Aaron is in the right-handed batter's box, and his body twists to his left as he swings, making his jersey number 44 visible on the back of his Atlanta Braves road uniform. He is still holding the baseball bat over his left shoulder. The blurry background shows a dugout and the grandstand. There are five headlines on the magazine cover that read, "Rating The Power Hitters", "Willie Stargell Right to Gripe", Will Baseball Pay Its Debt to Hank Aaron?", "Nolan Ryan-Flash in the Pan, or for Real?", The Inside Story of Jon Matlack, The New Mets Meal Ticket."
