As is stated on this giant, framed Sports Illustrated cover, this item is “magic” - super image of the Chicago White Sox double play dynamic duo, second baseman Nellie Fox and shortstop Luis Aparicio, who signs in 9/10 felt tip, "Best regards from both of us. Luis Aparicio." This cardboard advertising display was used at the point of purchase for the magazine, and is dated August 10, 1959, the year Fox won the A.L. MVP, and three years after Aparicio earned Rookie of the Year. The only one we have ever seen, is in EX condition, and is matted and housed in a sharp wood frame.
