NOTE--the baseball card scanned does not come with the yearbook. It's there just to show him in the majors. In his first at bat as a major baseball league player, May 19, 1962 Bobby Tillman hit a home run---a very rare feat indeed. This high school yearbook from Isaac Litton in Nashville Tennessee class of 1956 is for Bobby Tillman's senior year. This guy was Mr. Everything---all-state QB, all-region basketball player--and city MVP in baseball. There are football pics, basketball pics and of course a baseball picture too and several others in this yearbook. Obviously a tremendous and gifted athlete. He has signed this book on at least four of his pictures and one of them he writes a nice paragraph to the young lady who apparently was the student whose yearbook this was. (she must have been popular as there are many other autographs and well wishes). He caught two no-hitters in his career. He played from 1962 to 1970. He was on two pennant winners--American with the 1967 Red Sox and 1969 National with the Braves. He was a big fellow for the period---6-4 and 205 and you can see stands above his team mates in some of the school photos. He is now deceased (2000). This yearbook is a great collectible and certainly very rare to find any professional athlete who signed the same item at least four times. See ALL the scans for samples of
