Description: This lot features the 2001 Fleer Greats Enos Slaughter Auto Issue - PSA 8! Cardinals! --- Slaughter was a lefthanded batter who hit .300 or better ten times, a superb outfielder with a deadly accurate throwing arm, and the quintessential hustler. While playing for the Columbus, Georgia, Redbirds (Sally League) in 1936, Slaughter was rebuked for not hustling by manager Eddie Dyer, and he vowed never again to walk while on a ball field. Slaughter had an unusually swift rise through the vast Cardinal farm system. When he arrived in St. Louis in 1938, he was making $400 a month, but when he learned the Cubs had offered $100,000 for him, he persuaded the Cardinals to give him a $200 raise. He led the NL with 52 doubles in 1939 and with 188 hits in 1942, and led in triples in 1942 and 1949. He captured the league RBI title with 130 in 1946. He had extra-base power to all fields, and his level swing made him a fine contact hitter and a good man in the clutch; he spoiled three no-hitters. In 1947 he knocked in ten runs in a doubleheader. Here’s a great looking example of his 2001 autograph card here. This beauty has 4 razor sharp corners, 4 exceptional borders and a blazing surface with full gloss, color and clarity. The reverse is crisp and clean with pack fresh background color, near perfect centering and no marks or blemishes of any kind.
