Duke Snider – 1949 Bowman
Seeing we have highlighted the works of rookie stars like Mickey Mantle and Willie Mays, it is only fair we bring your attention to the likes of Duke Snider – the Duke of Flatbush. Snider’s career took sailing during the late 40s into early 50s, and was considered a worthy member of the Brooklyn Dodgers (center fielder). He was also a part of the “Boys of Summer” crew. The only person who stood out against him in fame and status was Jackie Robinson. Snider was right up there with the likes of Mantle, and when his card was printed, it was a must-have. In 2016, a card with a good grade rate scored a whopping $232,750.
