Sullivan earned a reputation as a terrible hitter and a superior catcher. His .212 lifetime batting average makes him the second worst hitter of all time (to Bill Bergen) among those with 3,000 at-bats. Ty Cobb called him the best catcher “ever to wear shoe leather.” Vintage matte-finish 9.25 x 12 photo, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “To my pal Joe Hampton, with all the good wishes a pal would want. Sincerely, William Sullivan.” In very good condition, with unevenly trimmed edges, scattered light soiling, and creasing to bottom portion, lightly affecting signature. Auction LOA Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
