Sports Illustrated, Vol.1, No. 1(First Issue) with 6 Pages of Baseball Cards and Original Mailing Envelope

Chicago: Time Inc., 1954. First Edition. Quarto. Item #028791

First issue. A fine copy in every respect not only with all the marvelous Topps six baseball card foldout but in the original mailing envelope which is worn though in the process of mailing it which protected it beautifully. One of the most important items to the baseball collector. It included many who became members of baseball's Hall of Fame such as Jackie Robinson, Ted Williams, Willie Mays, and others enshrined in Cooperstown alongside those who were the heroes that did not quite make it. For instance, Harvey Haddix who pitched a perfect game for 12 innings but in the 13th a throwing error caused him only to end up with a 13-inning no-hitter. An exceptionally nice copy.

Price: $485.00
