Description

1909-11 T206 Piedmont Nap Lajoie (Portrait) PSA EX-MT 6. Fine "Portrait" card featuring Hall of Fame second baseman Napoleon Lajoie as a member of the Cleveland Naps. Lajoie was the first second baseman inducted into the Hall of Fame. His 21 year career helped bring the American League from infancy to respectability. In 1910, the 35-year old Nap beat out 23-year old Cobb by one point in the batting race (.384 to .383). Cobb had sat out the final two games of the 1910 season, hoping to hold on to his lead, but Lajoie played in a season ending doubleheader and racked up eight hits, six of which were bunts! A very nice card rated almost entirely on centering. The reverse displays a "Piedmont - 350 Subjects" with a Factory 25 designation. Graded PSA EX-MT 6.
