1940s Grover Cleveland Alexander Cleveland Indians Signed Parchment - JSA

Grover Cleveland Alexander's pitching resume can rival any mans. He won the pitching version of the triple crown three times, finished third all-time in wins and even found time to win 30 games on three occasions.

Alexander autographs are a true challenge as he disappeared from the game and battled epilepsy and alcoholism during the final years of his life. The down-and-out pitcher was selected to the Hall of Fame but it did little solace.

This parchment is signed by Alexander and a number of other baseball players. Some of the others who signed include: Neb Stewart, Wilbert McGill, Bruce Campbell, Hal Trosky, Frany Pytlak, Tom Hughes and a few more.

The Alexander autograph cut be lifted and formed as a single cut. The signature is bold and honors one of the best to toe the rubber.
