From same series as previous lots. Having begun his career before the turn of the century in 1896, Nap Lajoie was one of baseball's brightest stars of the 1900s-1910s. Lajoie compiled one of the top five all-around batting seasons of the 20th century during 1901, winning the AL Triple Crown w/a .426 batting average to go along w/league leading totals of 14 home runs and 125 RBI's in addition to topping the AL in runs scored w/145 and doubles with 48. Nap would finish his MLB career with a .338 batting average, accounting for three AL batting titles, and was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1939. Minimal trace of margin wear. Exceptional eye appeal, remaining clean and w/bold and distinct image. PSA census indicates that only 10 examples of this supplement have ever been graded by PSA with only one graded higher than the offered specimen. One of the keys in the Sporting News set. This is fresh to the market, as are the following five lots.
