Description
This is a vintage 1948 Leaf All-Star Football Gum card featuring James Martin, who played for Notre Dame as an end. The card highlights Martin's transition from center to end under Coach Frank Leahy and describes his rugged defensive skills and blocking ability. It also compares him to Wayne Millner, another great Notre Dame player, while noting Martin's military service which earned him a Presidential Citation. The front of the card displays a colorful illustration of Martin in action, with bold red and blue background and yellow accents on his uniform. The back provides detailed biographical information, including his height, weight, age, and notable achievements. The card shows signs of wear consistent with age, such as slight edge wear and corner rounding, but remains visually appealing.
