c.1930's Hank Greenberg PSA Type I Encapsulated International News Photos – Measures Approx. 6-1/2" x 8-1/2"
This brilliant c.1930's Hank Greenberg 6-1/2"x 8-1/2" PSA Type 1 International News Photo portrays the Hall of Fame slugger in a classic "half-body" portrait pose. The finest imaginable clarity and resolution elevate the image to world-class stature, with its bright white borders, relatively clean surfaces, and the verso's vivid International News credit stamp additional superb attributes. Any high-end artifact representing "Hammerin" Hank Greenberg is highly coveted by the collecting community.

Playing only 9 full seasons in the Major Leagues (he lost almost a full 4 years due to WWII), while Greenberg's lifetime statistics aren't record setting, they were surely productive. Winner of 2 MVP awards, he averaged over 35 homers and a 'staggering' 140+ RBI's, with 1938 being his greatest season when he chased Babe Ruth's legendary 60 home run mark, finishing at 58. Along with Jimmie Foxx and Lou Gehrig, he will forever be considered one of baseball's greatest 1st baseman to ever to step into the batter's box, justifying why this sparkling Greenberg keepsake resides as one of his foremost illustrations! – PSA Type I Encapsulation
