The season of 1930 was a good one for batters as numbers were up throughout the league, but none were as good as the mighty Hack Wilson that year, who produced one of the most productive offensive seasons in major league history: .356 batting average, with 56 homers and 190, yes 190 RBI! He also walked 105 times and compiled a .723 slugging percentage! He's shown 3 years later on this stunning card from the iconic '33 Goudey set in about as good of condition as imagineable - Mint! The first thing that one notices is the centering, which is dead on at 50/50 both ways. Next is the intricate detail and coloring, which makes the card appear as though painted by a Master, and finally the viewer notices the clean cream white borders and reverse with a smooth unblemished look and framed by four sharp, high end corners. Winning this card can finish off your year for you like it was 1930!
