Default 1951 Toleteros Gibson on Leland's

I happen to consider it one of the top ten cards in the hobby. Yes, it was created after his playing days, but it was created because the people who saw him play for years wanted a card of him. The card was created and sold within Gibson's millieu and, if it came several years too late, it just makes the issue of the card more bittersweet, and, for me, interesting. Personally, I'm not all that interested in the Blacksox, but to each their own.
