#129 Johnny Mize



#129 Johnny Mize
Progress: 1st of this card
26 of 407   6.39% Complete
How Acquired: $8.50 on ebay
Condition: Good
Some people may scoff at me calling this card good, but I seriously considered tagging it "very good."  It's has severe and obvious water damage.  Doesn't bother me much at all.  It's otherwise pretty decent, and it's Yankee and a Hall of Famer for under $10.  No complaints.  

Stats: 15 seasons (missed 3 years to Military Service), 10x All-Star, 4x Home Run Champ

Inducted into BaseBall Hall of Fame in 1981 by Veterans Committee

  1. I'd take a '52 of a HOFer at that price any day of the week. Nice pickup and beautiful card!

  2. Nice pick-up. He kinda, sorta looks like Babe Ruth on this card.... OK, maybe you have to squint a little but I see it.
