Recently Discovered Tony Lazzeri Zeenut Rookie
 
This is from an old zeenut collection. I thought the forum would appreciate seeing a Scarce HOF Rookie. To clarify I am the owner of this card

That's really neat. Lazzeri was just 19 years old, and it shows.

Thanks for sharing!

Great score on a great card! I saw a poor example in a card store in California about a decade ago - yours is much nicer.

If anyone's interested, I wrote a story about Lazzeri's Salt Lake days HERE

Held a type 1 photo of this gent today, part of the PCL-to-NYY trade that brought Lazzeri to the Yanks. ('19 is the year he graduated from high school, whose archives had the photo.)

I love seeing the Zeenut series getting some love!

Below is my 1925 Zeenut Tony Lazzeri.

ALSO:
Interestingly his W502 card has him also pictures with Salt Lake City (PCL) as you can distinctly see the SL (from Salt Lake) on his sleeve...they were using an old image of him. (not my card but wanted to share the image I was talking about...image courtesy of H&S)
