A longtime scout for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ben Wade posted a 19–17 record with 235 strikeouts during his five years of MLB service, with an additional 16 seasons pitching in the minor leagues. From the landmark 1952 Topps release, recognized as the most important set of the modern, post-war era, we have Wade’s #389 high-number card, encapsulated and graded EX-MT+ 6.5 by PSA. Much more difficult to locate than the low-number cards issued in the first five series, the high-number cards from the final series (#311 to #407) are always on the watchlist of collectors, especially pleasing, mid-to-high grade examples. Somewhat off-center, the card displays nicely, and is ready for any high-end ’52 Topps set.
