1945-46 Caramelo Deportivo #64 Sal Maglie. Graded a 1 by PSA. Sal "The Barber" is mostly known for his heroics in 1951 when he led the league with 23 wins on the way to a pennant for the New York Giants. He is one of a handful of players who played for the New York Giants, Brooklyn Dodgers, and New York Yankees. While playing in Cuba and Mexico, he was taught the necessity of pitching inside by Papa Montero himself, Adolfo Luque.
As with EVERY PSA card in this auction, if you would like to crack
this one out and send it to SGC, I will pay for the grading fees if it
doesn't get a bump in grade. This is not because SGC is more lenient
than PSA. They are not. But they are more accurate. All you have to do
is send me a scan of the card once it's out of the holder, so I can see
it hasn't been damaged (it can be difficult to crack cards out safely)
and then let me know what grade SGC gave it. If it's not higher than the
PSA grade, grading fees are on me! Offer is good for 60 days after
close of auction.
