PSA 4 - 1934-36 Batter-Up # 51 Cookie Lavagetto Pittsburgh Pirates

Description: A PSA graded VG-EX 4 - 1934-36 Batter-Up card of Harry "Cookie" Lavagetto of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Batter-Up set was issued over a three-year span (1934-1936) by the National Chicle Gum Company. The low series cards (#1-80) can be found in a variety of colors, including blue, gray, green, purple, red and sepia. The high series cards (#81-192) are more difficult to find and are also slightly smaller in size. High series cards are typically found printed in black & white, although some cards can be found with a slight blue or sepia tint. The cards were intended to be displayed by "popping out" the player and folding the card along the factory fold line to make it "stand up". Because of this, many Batter-Up cards are found with creases along the factory fold line and are sometimes missing the top section of the card surrounding the player. This particular card has not been "popped-out" or folded and the top section of the card is completely intact. This example features a "gray" tint and has bold printing, nice focus and clean edges. The corners are consistent with those found on most EXMT+/NM examples, with the exception of a very light touch of wear on the upper left corner. There is an extremely light vertical crease (approx. 1/4" long) that extends from the top edge downward to the player's glove. It does not break the paper and is just barely visible on the back. Otherwise the card appears to be free of any additional creasing. The back has some light toning, but is otherwise fairly clean. Even with the minor flaws, this is still a nice looking card for the grade that would not look out of place in a PSA 5 holder.
