A very popular autograph to this day, Hall of Famer Nellie Fox (1997) was a key member of the White Sox for 14 seasons, hitting over .300 six times and playing a record 798 straight games at second base. He was the 1959 AL MVP, leading his Sox to a pennant win. He is the third best all-time in strikeout percentage, with only 216 Ks in 9232 at-bats. Offered is his 1965 contract with the Houston Astros, paying him $25,000, signed by Fox and then NL President Warren Giles. Fox passed away in 1975. The signature rates a solid 9 and comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
