A “Beast” of a signature, etched by one of the greatest sluggers of ‘em all on a vintage newspaper photo of himself taking a cut affixed to a government postcard sent to Jim Davidson. Postcard is postmarked January 7, 1955 from Miami, FL, 4 years after the owner of 534 career homers was elected to the HOF. Fabulous Foxx signature in blue ink stretching up his left pant leg grades 9/10. Card itself is EX w/light soiling. The good-natured, large-living Foxx was a fan favorite in his day and has always been a collector’s favorite.
