Will gladly post my card contributions to the Jimmie Foxx thread once I get home. "The Beast" is definitely overlooked. Doesn't help that his direct competition, and greatest 1st basemen of all time, Lou Gehrig, played during the same time he did. Foxx was also very versatile. Had stints playing 3rd base, Catcher and even pitched a few times towards the end of his career.
He captured a triple crown and was a three time MVP, which in my opinion was even more impressive considering the time he played in and how the MVP was voted on back in his day. It's a shame that his health issues torpedoed his career as he had a very legitimate shot at Ruth's all time home run record. He's also is criminally undervalued in our hobby, in my amateur opinion.

Used to own an autographed version of this pose but on a different card (I think it was called a leather finish? BCornell kindly helped me identify the issue many years ago.)
