(LOT 242)
c.1913 John McGraw Rare Hitting Pose PSA Type 1 Encapsulated Brown Brothers Photo – Measures Approx. 4-3/4" x 6"

MUGSY TYPE 1!!! Extremely rare, this PSA Type 1 Brown Brothers photo reveals the immortal Giants manager hitting "fungoes" before gametime. Measuring approximately 4-3/4" x 6", Mugsy is donning his classic New York pinstripes and striped cap, with the crystal-clear clarity, stellar contrast and lack of any obtrusive flaws accounting for the brilliant aesthetics. Negligible flaws include an upper right quadrant diagonal crease, some lower right edge chipping, and two right-side rounded corners, with the final stamp of approval being several Brown Brothers credit stamps on the verso. John McGraw's unparalleled standing as arguably our National Pastime's greatest manager is justified by his 29-year tenure as the NY Giants field general that produced eight pennants and three World Championships, with this timeless illustration residing as a momentous keepsake from his NY Giants tenure!
