Significance of autograph (very valuable):
One heck of a pennant race. Some old-timers will tell you this is when the Red Sox-Yankee rivalry was revived. Since the 1920s, the Red Sox were just another AL team the Yankees rolled over. But with Ted Williams around, no one rolled over the Red Sox. However, when all was said and done, who won this classic pennant race? The Yankees! The article side of this box score game card explains it all.
Note: The autographs on this card are of players who had renowned careers … three of whom made it to the Hall of Fame, including Bobby Doerr, who was the last living player from this rivalry. Unfortunately, Bobby died at 99, the only time in his life that he wanted to bat 100.
