1911 T3 Turkey Red Cabinet Card No. 87 Eddie Collins HOF: Turkey Red Ad Back. Philadelphia Athletics AL (1906–1914, 1927–1930), Chicago White Sox AL (1915–1923; player-manager: 1924–1926), Boston Red Sox AL (general manager-vice president: 1933–1951). Had a .333 lifetime batting average and 3,315 hits, Collins holds the MLB record for career games (2,650), assists (7,630), and total chances (14,591) at second base. He was the first Major League ballplayer to steal 80 bases in a season. In 1914 he received the Chalmers Award as the American League’s Most Valuable Player. As part of the A’s famous $100,000 infield, Collins helped the Athletics to four pennants and three World Series Championships between 1910 and 1914. All of the 1911 T3 Turkey Reds in this auction are ungraded, but very grade worthy.
