Default 1923-24 Billiken Andy Cooper - HOF nominee

Posted By: Matt Goebel

This is an extremely rare card of Negro League star southpaw and manager Andy Cooper who was a mainstay for the Detroit Stars and Kansas City Monarchs for over 20 years. The card is in nice EX condition (very high grade for the issue)with respect to the following - it is cut narrow (NOT trimmed)and resultingly is badly off-center left to right, and it has some faint spotting on the surface from age/climate. I'm not sure that any example of this card has ever been offered for public sale.

If he gets elected to the HOF then this card will be worth several times my asking price, and if not then you still have a rare and desireable card of a very fine Negro League pitcher. $1500 ppd.
