"Hammerin' Harmon" Killebrew was nicknamed "The Killer" because of what he could do to a baseball with his bat. At the time of his retirement, only Babe Ruth had hit more home runs in the AL. He hit 40 or more home runs in a season eight times and led the league six times. He also led the AL in RBI three times and was a 13-time All-star. His autograph is one of the most attractive autos in my collection and I've shown you four of them throughout this thread. As of today, I have 324 unique Beckett recognized cards of Harmon in my collection. Here are nine of them.
