1966 Gaylord Perry Future HOFer Throwing Heat Original TYPE 1 photo PSA LOA
Gaylord Perry was a right-handed pitcher for eight different teams from 1962 to 1983. During a 22-year baseball career, Perry compiled 314 wins, 3,534 strikeouts, and a 3.11 earned run average. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in his third year of eligibility in 1991.
Perry, a five-time All-Star, was the first pitcher to win the Cy Young Award in each league, winning it in the American League in 1972 with the Cleveland Indians and in the National League in 1978 with the San Diego Padres. He is also distinguished, along with his brother Jim Perry, for being part of the second-winningest brother combination in baseball history—second only to the knuckleball throwing brothers, Phil Niekro and Joe Niekro. While pitching for the Seattle Mariners in 1982, Perry became the 15th member of the 300 win club. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991.
Offered is a gorgeous 8” x 10” of Perry in his finest form from August 20, 1966 (stamped on the back) by Howard Erker of the Oakland Tribune. Perry is seen his in Giants flannel uniform!
