Beckett Authenticated 2017 Historic Autographs Originals 1930's series autograph and 1930's Goudey baseball card (#33) of former MLB player Red Kress, numbered 3 of only 5 made. Kress was an baseball shortstop, third baseman, first baseman and coach in Major League Baseball. From 1927 through 1946, he played for the St. Louis Browns (1927–1932; 1938–1939), Chicago White Sox (1932–1934), Washington Senators (1934–1936), Detroit Tigers (1939–1940) and New York Giants (1946).

Kress returned to New York City to coach for the first-year 1962 Mets under Casey Stengel. The scan shows the actual item.
