Autographed 1989 TV Sports Mailbag #26 Johnny Mize MLB Hall Of Fame Induction 8X10 Stat Sheet (Limited Edition Of 1000). A limited edition commemorative piece honoring one of the most formidable power hitters of baseball's Golden Age and limited to just 1,000 examples. The display celebrates Mize's induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame with classic imagery and a presentation of his remarkable career statistics, while Mize has personally signed the piece, creating an especially appealing Hall of Fame collectible from the legendary slugger known as "The Big Cat." Mize enjoyed a brilliant 15 season Major League career with the St. Louis Cardinals, New York Giants and New York Yankees, finishing with 2,011 hits, 359 home runs, 1,337 RBI and a .312 lifetime batting average, extraordinary numbers made even more impressive by the fact that he lost three full seasons during his prime while serving in the United States Navy during World War II. One of the premier power hitters of his generation, Mize led the National League in home runs four times, RBI three times and slugging percentage four times, while earning 10 All Star selections. In 1947 he belted a career high 51 home runs for the Giants, and the following season he became the first player in Major League history to hit 50 home runs while striking out fewer than 50 times, an extraordinary testament to his rare combination of tremendous power and exceptional bat control. Late in his career, Mize joined the powerhouse Yankees and contributed to five consecutive World Series championship teams from 1949 through 1953, giving him an important place within one of baseball's greatest dynasties. He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1981, cementing his legacy among the greatest first basemen and sluggers in baseball history. Mize passed away in 1993 at the age of 80, permanently limiting the supply of authentic material signed during his lifetime. Combining a Johnny Mize autograph, limited edition production of only 1,000, Hall of Fame commemorative presentation, distinguished World War II service and the legacy of a five time World Series champion and one of baseball's great power hitters, this impressive piece represents a tremendous addition to any Johnny Mize, Cardinals, Giants, Yankees, Hall of Fame or advanced baseball autograph collection.
