Description

1930's Jimmie Foxx Single Signed Baseball. "He has muscles in his hair," Yankees Hall of Fame pitcher Lefty Gomez once said of the prolific slugger who made the 500 Home Run Club a duo during the final week of the 1940 season, joining the Babe in long ball immortality. One of the most feared right-handed hitters in baseball history, Foxx was a key force in breaking the 1920's Yankees' stranglehold on the American League, supplying Philadelphia with three pennants and two World Championships during Connie Mack's second great Athletics dynasty.

Only Mel Ott presents a greater challenge to collectors aiming for a complete run of 500 Home Run Club single signed baseballs, and this non-official sphere provides a bold sweet spot autograph from Double-X, rating a conservative 8/10. Ball is moderately toned with minor handling wear. An impressive example of one of the hobby's most troublesome obstacles. Full LOA from PSA/DNA. Full LOA from Beckett Authentication Services.
