(LOT 62)
1915 Cracker Jack #167 Clark Griffith PSA 8.5 NM-MT+

POP 2!!! Only the T206 Monster Set can boast the prestige of the 1914 and 1915 Cracker Jack compilations that are loaded with many of our National Pastime's Cooperstown inductees. One of those prestigious Hall of Famers, legendary Senators owner Clark Griffith, is presented here in a miraculous PSA 8.5 NM-MT+ holder. Currently, only 1 other examples exist at this pinnacle tier with 3 graded higher. While winning 240 games over a super major league career, the "Old Fox", as he was commonly called, was more renowned for his 20-year managerial stint with four different ball clubs as well as becoming the major owner of the Washington Nationals.

His classic Carl Horner portrait image is nothing short of sensational, set against a bold "fire engine" red background. The well centered illustration is enclosed by four dazzling white borders, razor sharp edges and pinpoint corners that could actually draw blood. A "blazer" to say the least, if you are building a superior Cracker Jack set or simply assembling high grade Hall of Famers.

MIN BID $1,750
