Item Description
2-3/8x2-7/8". Issued continuously from 1934 to 1936, the National Chicle Diamond Stars (R327) set consists of 108 cards. Each card features a color art rendering of a player photograph, usually "in action," along with his name. The precise year of issue is deciphered by player statistics printed on the reverse - which also display a biography or big league tip - which is printed on a green or blue background.  Jimmy Foxx played 20 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Philadelphia Athletics, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, and Philadelphia Phillies. Considered one of the greatest hitters in baseball history, his greatest seasons were with the Philadelphia Athletics and the Boston Red Sox, where he hit a then-record 30 or more home runs in 12 consecutive seasons and drove in more than 100 runs in 13 consecutive years. Jimmy Foxx was inducted into the national Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1951.
