Default Handwritten letter
In his only year managing in the PCL, Hornsby led the 1951 Seattle Rainiers to their first championship in 10 years.

An underappreciated one. But I like it, because it dates from the Cardinal's first World Series championship year. And it was cheap!

That William Paterson is one of the coolest images of Rajah that I've seen. I've been at this a long time and I'm surprised I haven't seen that card before. An image like that usually sticks out in my head. I've owned my fair share of Paterson's, but for some reason, don't recall the Hornsby. Very cool!

Oh, and Chris, I've always loved Hornsby's "Big Head". I think I owned that exact example and got crushed selling via PWCC back in 2014. Ironically, I also owned a PSA 6 and sold it via Goodwin back in 2013 and made a killing. Go figure! Your SGC 20 has very nice borders and presents very nicely for a "Big Head". Great card!

Great cards everyone! I was inspired to look up Hornsby's career. Hard to believe a guy could hit 424 and finish second in the MVP.

Thanks,
My Big Head has done a few travels across our boards. I got it from Glenn(darwinbulldog) back in March 2015.
