Author: FELLER, Bob (1918-2010) Title: Photograph Signed
Description: Bullet Bob," "Rapid Robert," "The Heater from Van Meter" -- this Iowa-born American baseball star was one of the greatest pitchers of all time, pitching three no-hitters, playing eight All-Star games and winning baseball's Triple Crown in 1940; he debuted with the Cleveland Indians in 1936 and retired from that team in 1956, at which time his number (#19) was likewise retired; in 1962 he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame on his first ballot, which rarely happens. Oversize printed PS, 11" X 14", n.p. n.y. Very good. Some barely-visible wrinkles. Printed entirely in sepia, this modern reproduction is a full-length portrait of Feller in uniform at the height of his fame, throwing a pitch. His printed signature appears in a light area at lower right, and above this he signs boldly in black fineline. .
