1933 Goudey Freddie Lindstrom #133 PSA Authentic (Autograph Grade 9) - 14 PSA Graded Examples (Only 5 Graded Higher), d. 1981. Frederick Charles Lindstrom (November 21, 1905 – October 4, 1981) was a National League baseball player with the New York Giants, Pittsburgh Pirates, Chicago Cubs and Brooklyn Dodgers from 1924 until 1936. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1976.
At the age of 23, Lindstrom hit .358 for the Giants and was named The Sporting News Major League All Star team. Two years later, he repeated the honor while scoring 127 runs and batting .379, second only to Rogers Hornsby among right-handed batters in National League history.
In 1930, Giants manager John McGraw ranked Lindstrom ninth among the top 20 players of the previous quarter century. Babe Ruth picked him as his NL all-star third baseman over Traynor for the decade leading up to the first inter-league All Star game in 1933. Bill James called the 1927 Giant infield of Lindstrom, Hornsby, Travis Jackson and Bill Terry the decade's best. From 1924 through 1930 as a Giants third baseman, he batted .328 and played brilliantly in the field. Part of The Uncle Jimmy Collection.
