The 1951 Bowman Whitey Ford rookie card is a key collectible from the golden era of baseball cards. Featuring a painted portrait of Ford in his New York Yankees uniform, it captures the elegance of Bowman’s art style. Ford, nicknamed "The Chairman of the Board," would go on to become one of the greatest pitchers in Yankees history, playing a pivotal role in their dynasty. This card marks the beginning of his storied career, which included 236 wins and a World Series MVP award. This particular example has 4 EX/MT to NM corners, with centering off mostly left/right. A small blemish appears on the left edge in the white about eye level with Whitey.
