DESCRIPTION

1950 Bowman No. 159 Joe Tipton, Philadelphia Athletics. Graded SGC 84 NM 7, certification number 1263809-036. Photos show the exact card and holder you will receive, so please review them closely and judge the centering and appearance for yourself.

Joe Tipton was a catcher who debuted with the Cleveland Indians in 1948 and was with the club for its World Series championship that season. He spent 1949 with the Chicago White Sox, catching 67 games and batting .204, then moved to the Philadelphia Athletics after the season ended. He caught for the A's from 1950 through 1952, returned to Cleveland in 1952 and 1953, and finished his major league career with the Washington Senators in 1954. Across 417 games he batted .236 with 29 home runs and 125 RBI. The back of this card, shown in the photos, covers his 1947 season with Wilkes-Barre of the Eastern League, where he hit .375 and won the league batting title.

The trade that sent Tipton from Chicago to Philadelphia in October 1949 brought Nellie Fox to the White Sox in return. Fox went on to play 14 seasons in Chicago, won the 1959 American League MVP award, and was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1997.
