(LOT 308)
1932 U.S. Caramel #23 Jimmy Foxx PSA 7.5 NM+

THE BEAST!!! "When Neil Armstrong first set foot on the moon, he and all the space scientists were puzzled by an unidentifiable white object. I knew immediately what it was. That was a home run ball hit off me in 1937 by Jimmie Foxx." - Lefty Gomez I would imagine that many of the finest pitchers in the Junior League shared the same sentiments as Lefty did.

You gotta believe that Foxx earned his befitting nickname "the Beast" by routinely hitting the ball harder and further than anyone else, save the Bambino. Here is the opportunity to own the toughest mainstream issue of "Double X" in the hobby. These '32 Caramels are extremely scarce in high grade, and this is a perfect example of that fact. This terrific example is just one of three graded 7.5 NM+ by PSA with a handful graded higher! This beauty would make a superb addition to any Hall of Fame Registry collection.
