1948-49 Sports Champion Exhibit Ben Hogan Rookie Card - Front Notes '48 U.S. Open Win
The 1948-49 Sports Exhibit Champions is a very tough issue. We offer one of the many stars of that issue in Ben Hogan who appears in his first collectors issue. The 1948-49 issue comes on the heels of one of Hogan's career seasons, having won two Majors with triumphs at the 1948 U.S. Open and PGA Championship on his way to PGA Player of the Year honors. The front of this extremely rare 1949 issued card makes note of Hogan's 1948 U.S. Open win. Grading is very subjective so please use the large front and back scans and you judge.
