Description

Black-and-white (Artvue, Type 1) Hall of Fame postcard of Frank Baker signed by him in blue ink along the base. PSA/DNA has encapsulated the card and graded the signature GEM MINT 10. Baker has always been one of the scarcest signed black-and-white Hall of Fame postcards. Baker was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1955 and he passed away in 1963, the final year that black-and-white Hall of Fame postcards were issued. This is just the fifth example we have offered in the past 21 years. The postcard (3.5 x 5.5 inches) displays light creasing and scattered staining front and back. In Good condition overall.
