Important 1949 Satchel Paige rookie era J.D. McCarthy Postcard. Graded 1 Poor by SGC due to reverse correspondence. The stamped artifact is postmarked 12/27/49 from Cleveland, dating the piece conclusively to the time period of his Bowman rookie high number. With deference to the expected writing, the Hall of Famer's glossy portrait is flanked by moderate corner/edge wear and limited surface crazing with creasing limited to the bottom right corner. A timeless image of a transcendent legend!
