This card features a wonderful, waist up portrait of Victor Starffin, the Russian immigrant who won 300 games in Japan Pro Baseball. Starffin is seen here in his 1946 Pacific Team uniform. Although he is wearing a 1946 uniform in the photo, the card was issued in 1947, since the text on the card states "Taiyo". Starffin pitched for the Taiyo Robins, successor to the Pacific Team, in 1947. We have never seen another example of this card!
