Description

Card has very minor corner/edge/surface wear, but no creases! There is a very slight surface wrinkle along the upper right front edge just above the letter "k" in his last name. It is barely noticeable and does not impact the back of the card, which is very clean with dark printing. The centering is off, but the color/gloss are absolutely brilliant! The focus is sharp. Theodore Bernard "Big Klu" Kluszewski is considered by many to be one of the most underappreciated players of the post-WWII era. A 15-year Major Leaguer, he was a 4X All-Star as well as an absolute home run hitting and RBI machine in the 1950's. Kluszewski also had a stellar coaching career after retiring as a player, which included serving as the Cincinnati Reds Hitting Coach for nearly all of the 1970's and at the height of the Big Red Machine's success. If his career wasn't cut short by injuries, Kluszewski would be in the Hall of Fame. Overall, a nice mid to upper-mid grade example for your collection.
