Description

1948 Leaf Satchel Paige #8 PSA Poor 1. This 1948 Leaf card, numbered #8, features Satchel Paige, an iconic and groundbreaking pitcher whose career spanned several decades and included remarkable achievements in both the Negro Leagues and Major League Baseball. Known for his incredible pitching talent, longevity in the sport, and charismatic personality, Paige's contributions to baseball extended far beyond the field, playing a pivotal role in breaking down racial barriers in the sport. Capturing Paige during his early years in Major League Baseball, this card from the 1948 Leaf set offers a window into a transformative period in baseball history. Graded PSA Poor 1 mostly due to a top center pinhole and a second small area of damage closer to the upper right corner, neither of which extends past the border. This card remains a highly treasured piece of memorabilia, symbolizing the enduring legacy of a player who was not just a phenomenal athlete but also a key figure in the story of baseball's desegregation and evolution.
