Description

George Foster was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1968 Draft by the San Francisco Giants. He made his MLB debut with them in 1969 and played parts of the 1970 and 1971 seasons with San Francisco before being traded to the Cincinnati Reds in late May of 1971. He then went on to become a key member of the famed Big Red Machine and helped the Reds win back-to-back World Series in 1975 and 1976. He finished his career with the Mets and White Sox, retiring after the 1986 season. With this lot, you get his 1971 Topps #276 Rookie card. It has corner/edge/surface wear, but has no creases and great eye appeal due to its strong color/focus/centering. You also get the pictured autograph item, which measures 3.5 x 6 inches and is printed on a thinner paper stock with a blank back. The item (date unknown) is signed boldly and cleanly in black sharpie. Will accept any reasonable offer.
