1915 Cracker Jack #66 Nap Lajoie PSA 7 NM
PACK-FRESH NAP!!! Similar to their striking red backgrounds, high-grade 1915 Cracker Jack baseball cards are currently red hot, justifying why this spectacular PSA 7 NM Nap Lajoie would be an incredible addition to any sophisticated gathering. Finding NM or better pre-WWI cards of renowned Hall of Famers is no simple task, and with only 108 total graded issues from PSA, high-grade examples are considerably rarer! This low-pop Cracker Jack has only ten equals with only a few handfuls graded higher. Lajoie is considered one of baseball's greatest second basemen, along with Hornsby and Collins, with that notion supported by his 3,243 hits, spectacular .338 lifetime batting average and uncanny fielding ability yielding a .963 career fielding percentage. His 1901 campaign stands as one of baseball's finest ever, winning the AL Triple Crown while setting a modern-day record with his uncanny .426 batting average. The throwing pose on this offering is nothing short of miraculous, set against a rich red background and exhibiting the finest possible crystal-clear clarity. While the image does minimally favor the left edge, the razor-sharp perimeter, pinpoint corners and near-impeccable surfaces all combine to substantiate the superior assessment for this Cooperstown-worthy heirloom!
