Mailbag: A Podres Autograph and Some Bonus Dodger Cards


I recently picked up some Dodger Baseball cards off of eBay, and thought I would share my bounty here.  As a part of a multiple card lot, I received the above 2013 Topps Series 1 Chasing History autographed card of 1955 World Series hero Johnny Podres.  I've got multiple different Podres autographed cards in my collection, but I just can't help but add more to my collection.  Below is the reverse of the card.

Included with the Podres was a whole bunch of other Dodgers, most of which I didn't already have.  Check out some of the more modern issues below.  All of these cards came home with me for about $6 bucks, delivered.

The best of the bunch are the below 1978-1979 TCMA Baseball History Series cards featuring some old-timers.  I've seen these cards a number of times throughout my hobby life, but have never actually added a card to my collection.  So, I was ecstatic that they were included.

Can you name them all?
Here is a key to help you with identifying who they are:
