Rare Vintage 1923 Lections PSA Baseball Card Bob Emil Meusel PR1 (MK)
Description

This is an extremely rare vintage original Lections series baseball card dating to 1923. The card was graded by the Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) and purports to feature Bob Meusel, a left and right fielder for the New York Yankees (1920-1929). It seems, however, that a mistake was made when this card was printed as it actually depicts Bob's brother Emil, a left fielder for many baseball teams during the 1910s-1920s. As pictured, the card was identified as Emil by PSA.

Little is known of this extraordinary series of cards and amazingly no one even knew that the Lections cards existed until a group of just 28 surfaced in Albany, New York in 1997. It is believed that the series were originally printed in sets of 10. Many collectors think the cards accompanied candy or gum as a premium. However, according to one collector, he acquired a set from a gentleman who remembered getting the cards at a state or county fair from local Upstate politicians running for office. Adults attending the fair/rally were given Election cards showing the candidate and the children were given a "Lection" card depicting a famous baseball player of the day. Since the cards were only handed out over the duration of a local fair (just a few days), their existence is very scarce and as such very rare.
