#18 Anthony Michael Lazzeri, New York Yankees AL
Condition: Near-Mint
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. The cards were issued by Marketcom, Inc., under its Baseball Americana banner as part of
The Sporting News
Conlon Collection. Each card was made from a 4x5 glass negative of baseball's premier photographer - Charles Martin Conlon. The card biographical writing,
which is without peer
, was authored by Paul MacFarlane,
The Sporting News
historian. The cards are a giant size (4-1/2" by 6-1/8") format in beautiful sepia and include the player's
facsimile
autograph: stellar ingredients all!
The card offered is the larger card
. For contrast purposes we have shown a standard 2-1/2" by 3-1/2" Conlon Collection card (also of Lazzeri). The reverse side of the Lazzeri Giant-size Conlon is included in the second scan to give the viewer a look at the extensive biographical information provided.
For variation collectors it should be noted that several of these giant-size Conlons feature different photos than the standard-size edition issued 5 years later. For the record, this card is the same pose - as can be seen in the first scan.
