Baseball, Joe Medwick autographed original Gold Hall of Fame Plaque postcard. (Curteichcolor) Nicely signed on the top front in bold black ball point. A beauty !!! As was typical Medwick used an eraser to remove the slick surface before signing the postcard. Tough and gruff, outfielder Joe Medwick's competitive spirit typified the rowdy "Gashouse Gang" Cardinals of the 1930s. Medwick, nicknamed "Ducky" because of his waddling gait, ended his 17-year career with a .324 batting average. He also accumulated 1,383 RBI, topping the National League three straight years. In 1937, he not only captured the National League Triple Crown, but also led the senior circuit in nine other categories and was voted the loop's Most Valuable Player. Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1968 he died in 1975.
