Item Description
From the same set as lot #782. Card front reads "Santa Clara B.B.C. H. Johnson-Infielder." A star in the Negro Leagues, Johnson played catcher and outfielder and was one of the league's foremost power hitters in the 1920s. During his career he played for several teams including the KC Monarchs, Harrisburg Giants and Baltimore Black Sox. In the first Negro World Series, Johnson hit .296 and delivered the winning double in the finale. He was also part of arguably the greatest Cuban Winter League team ever.
