This 1909-13 M101-2 Sporting News Supplement captures the legendary Grover C. Alexander in the midst of his windup, poised to deliver a strike for the Philadelphia Athletics. The piece is an exceptional example of early baseball artistry, with intricate details that bring Alexander’s expression, mitt, and cleats into sharp focus. Despite its PSA POOR 1 grade, this supplement stands out with only eight higher-graded examples according to the PSA population report. The craftsmanship is impressive, and if not for the wear at the bottom edge, it would surely have received a higher grade.
