One of the most prized autographs in the hobby is present here on this cut check affixed to a 1939 Baseball Centennial First Day Cover. Only a handful of the "Big Six's" signatures still exist today and even fewer can compare to this phenomenal specimen. The steel-tip fountain pen signature displays superior form, fluidity, and color grading a "9" out of a possible "10". The cover (EX+) is mounted under a photo of the legendary pitcher under double-matting which is framed to 12"x19". LOA.
