Cut Signature (personal check piece) has been encapsulated by Beckett (BGS). Please see photos for more details regarding the condition of the cut signature (Pittsburgh Pirates).Paul Waner nicknamed "Little Poison", was a center fielder. His small stature at 5 ft 9 in. and 132 lb. made him one of the smallest players of his era. Along with his brother, Paul Waner, he anchored the Pittsburgh Pirates outfield throughout the 1920s and 1930s. After brief stints with four other teams late in his career, Waner retired as a Pirate. Waner was elected to the MLB Hall of Fame in 1967. He passed away in 1982 at the age of 78.
