Underrated among fans of the vintage game, Buddy Myer finished a 17 year career with a lifetime batting average of .303, with a .389 OBP, winning the 1935 batting title with a .349 average.  He has signed this 1940 Play Ball card, the signature grading MINT 9 with PSA/DNA.  The card originates from the Shibe Park collection of autographed cards, an original owner collection carefully collected by a teenage boy who, in 1939 and 1940, obtained many autographs from players arriving at the train station near Shibe Park, and continued for many years to obtain signatures in person and through the mail.
