HOF; Deceased: 2002; Grade Pop: 6; Pop Higher: 2; Total Pop: 8
One of the three 1952 Topps Hall of Famer "Rookie" cards belongs to knuckleball specialist Hoyt Wilhelm, presented here with a bold fine Sharpie signature scripted along the right frame. PSA has only authenticated eight Wilhelm signed '52 Topps subjects, with this world-class offering one of the most significant of all autographed high number players. Wilhelm pitched 21 MLB seasons, posting 143 wins and a remarkable 2.52 lifetime E.R.A. in 2,254 innings pitched. Along with Dick Williams and Eddie Mathews inaugural cards, his 1952 Topps subject card receives the highest hobby accolades, especially when it surfaces with his scripted name!
