1936 R311 National Chicle Leather ⭐ Jimmy Foxx
1939-46 Salutation Exhibits ⭐ Jimmy Foxx
Two of my favorite pre-War cards. I bought them both raw. Only sent one to be enshrined by PSA so far.
Nicknamed "The Beast" and "Double X", Foxx carved out a legendary profile with his monstrous swing, bulging arms, and devastating power. During his 20-year career, he hit a remarkable .325 lifetime average and drove in at least 100 runs in 13 consecutive seasons—an enduring Major League record. His crowning jewel came in 1933, when he secured the American League Triple Crown.
Elected to the Hall of Fame in 1951.
