I’ve always wanted to get a vintage in person Paige autograph. But they are pricey and getting more expensive. But these can still be had at a reasonable price. I had one made into a custom cut to satisfy my urge to have it in a regular card size. I love some of the stories and folklore surrounding Paige, Josh Gibson and other Negro League greats.
The legend of satchel page lives on… A dominant picture of the Negro leagues, he made the transition to major league baseball. He pitched into his 50s and some say early 60s as his actual birthdate was uncertain. Glad to have this PSADNA certified autograph in my collection.
I picked this one up last year. It’s probably a PSA 3 but has amazing centering, color, and eye appeal. I’ve always wanted one of these or one of his early Leaf cards. This fits my collection perfectly. His story, and longevity, are super cool to me. I’d love to find a couple more cards, on-card autograph, or tickets to his career.
