A backup catcher to Hall-of-Famer Mickey Cochrane during the four years they played together in Detroit, and in fact losing his starting job when the Mack-man came over, Ray Hayworth played for fifteen seasons in the big leagues but never made it back to the World Series after 1935. The card grades VG 3 but the signature is a solid PSA/DNA NM-MT 8, nicely signed in blue ink and perhaps under-graded from the look of the well-executed and strong autograph. 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.
