Bob Lemon (1920-2000) was a legendary pitcher for the Cleveland Indians and a celebrated Baseball Hall of Famer. Renowned for his versatility, Lemon began his career as an outfielder but transitioned to the mound, becoming one of the most dominant pitchers of his era. Over 13 seasons (1941, 1946-1958), he compiled 207 career wins, seven 20-win seasons, and a lifetime ERA of 3.23. A seven-time All-Star and two-time World Series champion (1948, 1978 as a manager), Lemon's lethal sinker and competitive spirit defined his style.Offered is an original TYPE 1 photo that measures 8 1/8" x 10" signed and inscribed in black ink.This photo was the image used for his 1949 & 1950 Cleveland Indians Picture Pack Card and his 1951 Bowman #53 baseball card.Images of Hall of Famers that were usedon trading cards are highly sought after.Encapsulated as a TYPE I photo by PSA/DNAFull LOA for the photo and autographAdditional JSA COA for the autograph as well.*NOTE* card is not included
