Arriving in New York at the tender age of seventeen Master Melvin wasted no time making the Polo Grounds his home and Broadway his playground. A striking image of the young superstar stands out strongly against the green backdrop of this exquisite Goudey example. With sharp corners and edges, near perfect centering and fresh coloring it is no wonder that this card is the highest graded specimen known to date, receiving an 8 by SGC. A fantastic addition to any pre-war or Hall of Fame collection.
