Nap Lajoie
Graded by SGC as MINT 96

Realized Price: $14,520

This is the one and only example of Hall-of-Fame legend Napoleon Lajoie's 1915 Cracker Jack issue graded MINT 96 by SGC, with none higher. Lajoie was one of the greatest players of the early twentieth century. Over a 21 season career, he accumulated a total of 3,242 hits, won five batting titles, won the 1901 American League Triple Crown, and finished with a lifetime batting average of .338.

This example is a virtually flawless gem. It has outstanding centering, attractive cream-white borders, and four pinpoint sharp corners. Lajoie's image is clearly registered, the surface quality is absolutely perfect, and the bright fiery-red background color is as deep and bold as the day this card was printed.
