Victor Starffin (dec. 1957) signed postcard Japanese HOF 1960

Description: Extremely rare, autographed postcard by Japanese HOF and 300 game winner Victor Starffin (dec. 1957) signed in English and Katakana) at a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) in 1952. Condition of post card is VG/EX and autograph is 7out of 10. Additional provenance provided upon request to all interested parties. His 1939 campaign has to rank as one of the most impressive ever posted by a professional hurler (any league and at any level) in the annals of modern-era 20th-century baseball. With the season expanded to 96 games and the league expanded as well to nine teams, Starffin registered a remarkable 57 decisions (and 68 pitching appearances in his championship club’s 96 outings), posting 42 wins (64 percent of the Giants’ total).On January 12, 1957, after a night of heavy drinking at a Tokyo location, Starffin rammed his speeding automobile into the rear of an electric streetcar and was killed instantly. His career record was 303 wins and 176 losses, and he retired in 1955.
