(LOT 1933)
Billy Martin 8/17/51 Bowman Gum, Inc. Signed Payroll Check PSA/DNA & JSA Authenticated
This BOWMAN GUM, INC. check has been written out to Billy Martin for $10.00 on August 17th, 1951. Martin didn't have a Bowman card until 1953, making this check a very desirable early-signed Billy Martin payroll check. Martin, a 5X World Series champ (1951-1953, 1956 and 1977) and an MLB All-Star, debuted for the Yankees in 1950. Known as a scrappy infielder who made considerable contributions to the championship Yankee teams of the 1950s, he then built a reputation as a manager who would initially make bad teams good. One rare Martin doc to add to your Yankee check collection!
