One of the scarcest signed '52 Topps Cooperstown Inductees is the Dodgers beloved shortstop and captain Pee Wee Reese. The driving force of the annual pennant winning Brooklyn teams that included Robinson, Snider and Campanella, Reese was the heart and soul of that Dodger machine, earning the "Captain" nod via his unparalleled leadership qualities. He received his ultra-popular nickname by being a superior young marbles player ("Pee Wee" was a type of marble), and he was the catalyst of a Brooklyn team that won seven pennants and their inaugural 1955 World Championship. Simply stated, he was the premier shortstop of his day (with all due respect to Rizzuto), and this "Pop 1" highest graded '52 Topps signed offering is the perfect testament for his unbridled legacy!
