First baseman Dick Siebert played 11 seasons in the majors, with the Dodgers, Cardinals and Athletics.  After his major league career he became head baseball coach at the University of Minnesota, where he would stay until his death in 1978.  His signature on this 1940 Play Ball card has been graded MINT 9 by 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.
