Description: This vintage TIME magazine cover, dated Sep 8, 1949, features a special 11x14 beveled mat and is a must-have for any sports fan or collector. Whether you're a fan of "Stan The Man", the St. Louis Cardinals , or just sports in general, don't miss out on the opportunity to own a unique piece of sports memorabilia. Musial broke in with the Cardinals in 1941 and won three National League MVP awards during his illustrious 22 year career, led the National League in hitting seven times, and won three World Series Championships with the Cardinals in the 1940's. Military service in WWII interupted his playing years and limited his career home run total to 475. He retired after the 1963 season with a career batting average of .331. This original cover is a rare find and is sure to be a valuable addition to any collection. This is one of my collection of 21 hard to fine original TIME magazine covers (not whole magazines) featuring famous baseball and football players that I acquired 15 years ago. I had been looking for over 30 years in antique shops, old book stores, and in flea markets up and down the East Coast. But while many people over the years collected LIFE magazines with sports personalities on the covers, for some reason hardly anyone kept their TIME issues. Some of these are very rare and almost 100 years old. The previous owner of this group had mounted them in mats, so they are ready for framing and adding to your own personal sports collections, complimenting your cards, figurines, or whatever.
