Description: This vintage TIME magazine cover, dated July 29, 1929 features Hall of Fame member Jimmy Fox and a special 11x14 beveled mat. It is a must-have for any sports fan or collector. Jimmy Foxx hit .325 for his career from 1925-1945 for 4 teams, the first 10 years with the Philadelphia Athletics, where he hit .354 with 33 home runs in 1929, hence this particular cover. He was a 9 time All-Star with 534 home runs and was a 3 time American League MVP. This original cover is a rare find, sure to be a valuable addition to any collection. This is one of my collection of 21 hard to fine original TIME magazine covers (not whole magazines) featuring famous baseball and football players that I acquired 15 years ago. I had been looking for over 30 years in antique shops, old book stores, and in flea markets up and down the East Coast. But while many people over the years collected LIFE magazines with sports personalities on the covers, for some reason hardly anyone kept their TIME issues. Some of these are very rare and almost 100 years old. The previous owner of this group had mounted them in mats, so they are ready for framing and adding to your own personal sports collections.
