Description
View of Rip Collins, pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. Typed on back: "Rip Collins, right-handed pitcher, Detroit Tigers." Label on back: "Rip Collins, whom they call 'Two-Gun' Collins down along the Rio Grande where he lives. Detroit secured him from the Boston Red Sox last autumn after he had won eight out of the last nine games he pitched for Boston, including six consecutive victories. He is a fast ball pitcher with the fastest fast ball in the American League. If his control is good this year he will be one of the major league's leading twirlers."
