Today the 3000 hit club is one of the most highly coveted benchmarks in baseball history. When Paul Waner approached the mark in 1942, he was the first to make it a media event. Here he symbolizes how many he needs for photographers as he sat on 2999 and everyone sensed that history was near. A cool paper caption on the back talks all about the record and how many were in the club etc. The photograph presents well with the only flaw being a small piece of tape residue at the bottom. Issued by Acme and stamped on the back with a detailed paper caption as well.
