Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist... One of the most interesting baseball cards ever issued #54 - John Henry (Shovel) Lloyd ~ Negro Leagues GIANT-size 1933 The Sporting News/Conlon Collection All-Star In 1983 a unique set of baseball cards honoring the 50th anniversary of major league baseball's All-Star Game was published featuring the key men of that year - 1933. Included were the top 18 batters and outstanding 6 pitchers of each league - as selected by The Sporting News. Also included were 12 top-flight players of the Negro Leagues. This card is one of those. The cards were issued by Marketcom, Inc., under its Baseball Americana banner as part of The Sporting News Conlon Collection. Unlike the American and National League player cards, the Negro League cards were not made from a 4x5 glass negative of baseball's premier photographer - Charles Martin Conlon. However, the card's biographical writing, which is without peer, was authored by Paul MacFarlane, The Sporting News historian. This card measures a giant size (4-1/2" by 6-1/8") format in beautiful sepia and includes the player's facsimile autograph: stellar ingredients all! (Just to be clear: the player autograph is printed on the card by the manufacturer; it is not uniquely signed by the player.)
