As was the case with many future Japan Hall of Fame members, along with his numerous baseball cards, many pieces of Fumio Fujimura memorabilia were produced. One of these collector pieces is this colorful plate, produced by YMK China. Fujimura's facsimile autograph is seen to the right of a full body image of Fujimura at end of swing. This piece is unique to the hobby. We have never seen another example.

Fumio Fujimura, affectionately known as "Mr. Tigers", was the heart and soul of the Osaka team from 1936 to 1958. In 1949, the year in which this plate was issued, Fujimura was named Central League MVP.
