"The Say Hey Kid" spent the majority of his Major League Baseball career as a center fielder with the New York and San Francisco Giants before finishing with the New York Mets. Mays retired after the 1973 season with a lifetime batting average of .302 and 660 home runs. His lifetime total of 7,095 outfield fielding putouts remains the major league record. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1979, his first year of eligibility.
This lot features a 3.5" x 3.5" 1952 Red Man tobacco Willie Mays card. The card is missing the bottom tab, but is in good shape otherwise with no creases or rips.
