This photo appeared in a 1976 issue of National Geographic. The singer/songwriter Lorde happened to be flipping through some old magazines, and came across a photo of "this dude just signing autographs. He was a baseball player, and his shirt said Royals". It was the inspiration for her 2013 Grammy winning song of the year. The image made it onto a baseball card in 2015.

1956 Aaron really has Willie Mays on it. Remember seeing this in Baseball Cards magazine as a kid and when I received a ‘56 Aaron for Christmas told all my friends about it being Mays.

That is crazy, I was trying to find a Hank Aaron sliding photo to match up to that Hank Aaron card last week, no wonder I couldn't find it! It's Willie Mays! That is crazy.
