Hal Chase Handwritten Signed Letter on 3x5" Card
Among the most unsavory characters in the history of the game, Chase was an oddly charismatic star. He was considered by contemporary observers to be the best-fielding first baseman ever, but he repeatedly threw games for the quick money he could make betting against his own team. Aptly, his career finally came to an end when he was suspended for life following the Black Sox Scandal. Offered is a hand written letter addressed to a young fan and penned upon a 3x5” card during his final years when his ever dependable hands were no longer as steady. In black fountain pen is, “Dear Robert- I am sort of shaky so the writing is bum. Glad to grant you your wish. Also your Buddy. Sincerely Hal Chase”. The ink is dark and entirely legible, grading a “9” out of possible “10”. Included also is 5x5.5” photo of Chase, EX+-EX-MT. LOA.
