.919 OPS should be a shoo-in for the HOF if you had a significant length career.
If you throw out the roid-heads and the guys from the ridiculous homer happy era we're in now it's even more impressive. Including everyone it is STILL 48th of all time and while he wasn't the greatest center fielder of all time he did have a great arm and racked up a lot of outfield assists. 6 top 10 MVP finishes. If anything he's underrated.

First thing that struck me seeing how short that card is.

+1....just spoke to someone who collected them out of packs. He says left border should be a little rough factory cut and that top....well, most of the top
 Around half of the high grade ones on ebay look to be trimmed.  (smooth left border)Quote:

Snider was hurt by playing in the same town as two of the ATGs at the same time and position, plus a Dodgers team that was both historic and loaded with talent. I mean, anyone short of Aaron, Williams or Musial is going to fall short of Willie and Mickey. He was also not the most charismatic or outgoing guy and was plagued with self-doubts, which the writers picked up on (read The Boys of Summer; has some interesting reflections on Snider).
That '57 is beautiful.

Better question: in what world is he up there with Mantle and Mays? His numbers are identical to those of Mike Piazza and he certainly doesnt have the panache of the players you mentioned.

Duke Snider rookie
Hi samosa4u
I cannot tell for sure, but it appears that your Snider rookie card has a "sharp" left border ? If so, then this card was tampered with. Every 1949 BOWMAN Snider has a "rough cut" on its left border since it was situated at the leftmost end of its printed 36-card sheet (see the simulated sheet shown below). Here is an example of what I am describing... .. . V .rough cut border   TED Z T206 Reference .
