Walter "Buck" Leonard ~ Homestead Grays

BLACK BALL postcard by Pomegranate

"WALTER "BUCK" LEONARD (born 1907) connecting for a home run against the Baltimore Elites at Griffith Stadium, 1945. Batting ahead of power-hitting catcher JOSH GIBSON, Leonard played a key role in leading the Homestead Grays to a decade-long dominance of the Negro Leagues. Leonard was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1972."

Good quality, limited edition cards depicting players from the old Negro Baseball Leagues are difficult to find. Offered here is a card from a series by Pomegranate utilizing a larger 4-3/4" by 5-1/2" in  duotone. A brief player biography is included on the divided postcard-style reverse. The photograph utilized is from the archives of the National Baseball Library at Cooperstown, New York.

Condition: Excellent/Near-Mint or better

  • For U.S. customers (on most items) we combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping charge on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate; also, on certain heavier items there may be an extra charge due to increased cost of shipping via Priority Mail instead of First Class.)
