Winning 207 games with a 3.23 ERA over 12 seasons exclusively with the Cleveland Indians, pitcher Bob Lemon later became a successful manager who piloted the NY Yankees to the 1978 World Series Championship. During his playing career, he would post seven 20-win seasons while managing to hit 37 home runs as a batter! This 9-3/4" x 11-3/4" framed cardboard plaque with leather matte is the actual one presented to Bob Lemon at his Hall of Fame induction in 1976 and is identical to the bronze plaque that hangs in the Hall of Fame Gallery as a testament to Lemon's prowess.
