1930s high school yearbook featuring students and faculty, activities and sports, candids, shots of the school and surrounding, and including graduating senior and futture professional baseball great Stan Musial who also signed by his senior picture at the time of graduation. Great photos and vintage design.
Stan Musial spent 22 seasons in playing for the St. Louis Cardinals from 1941 to 1944 and 1946 to 1963. Widely considered to be one of the greatest and most consistent hitters in baseball history, Musial was a first-ballot inductee into the Baseball Hall of Fame. He batted .331 over the course of his career and set National League records for career hits (3,630), funs batted in (1,951), games played (3,026), runs scored (1,949) and doubles (725). His 475 career home runs then ranked second in NL history. His 6,134 total bases remained a major league record until surpassed by Hank Aaron, and his hit total still ranks fourth all-time, and is the highest by any player who spent his career with only one team. A seven-time batting champion with identical totals of 1,815 hits at home and 1,815 hits on the road, he was named the Most Valuable Player three times and led St. Louis to three World Series championships. He also shares the major league record for the most All-Star Games played (24) with Hank Aaron and Willie Mays.
