The vintage signature is beautifully penned in blue ink horizontally across his jersey on the card front, showing clear, fluid script mechanics. This elusive autographed card has been fully verified and encapsulated as an \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"412\"\u003eAuthentic Autograph\u003c\/b\u003e by the industry-leading experts at PSA\/DNA under certification number 84449726.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThe 1957 Topps set is widely revered by advanced hobbyists as a vital milestone, permanently standardizing modern card dimensions while introducing unadorned, real-life player photography. This specific issue catches Finigan right as he arrived in the Motor City to anchor the Tigers' infield options. Because Finigan passed away in 1981—long before the modern autograph convention boom, TTM (through-the-mail) autograph networks, or professional card grading companies even existed—his authentic signatures on original 1950s card stock are extraordinarily rare. This represents a true white-whale acquisition for dedicated Detroit team registries or master 1957 Topps set autograph completionists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCard Highlights:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePlayer:\u003c\/b\u003e Jim Finigan (1954 \u0026amp; 1955 AL All-Star)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTeam:\u003c\/b\u003e Detroit Tigers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSet:\u003c\/b\u003e 1957 Topps Baseball\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCard Number:\u003c\/b\u003e #248\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAutograph Style:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-Signed vintage blue script\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCertification Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 84449726\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/b\u003e Secured inside a standard clear PSA slab featuring a custom black display gasket that perfectly accentuates the photographic composition of the vintage card.
