Bill Veeck was a Major League Baseball franchise owner and promoter. Veeck was at various times the owner of the Cleveland Indians, St. Louis Browns and Chicago White Sox. As owner and team president of the Indians in 1947, Veeck signed Larry Doby, thus beginning the integration of the American League. Veeck was the last owner to purchase a baseball franchise without an independent fortune, and is responsible for many innovations and contributions to baseball. He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991.

This piece measures roughly 9" x 11" inches with the frame and includes a Bill Veeck Perez-Steele card as well as an autographed 3x5 index card. This piece includes a copy of a JSA auction house letter.
