Lot # 1168: Signed 1949 Al Simmons Personal Check PSA Authentic

An elusive Hall of Famer autograph lights up the auction radar, with the offering of this Al Simmons signed personal check. Playing when contemporaries Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, and Rogers Hornsby were grabbing most of the headlines, Simmons was a tremendous hitter who is often overlooked in debates about historic all-time greats. Rock solid at the plate, "Bucketfoot Al" delivered consistently throughout his career, topping the 100 RBI mark in eleven seasons, while batting .334 lifetime. Simmons has signed boldly on the customary endorsement line of this Arkansas National Bank check, which is dated Nov. 30th, 1949.
