ESQUIRE GREAT MOMENTS IN SPORTS ESKY CARD SET #14, CARD #2 HANK LUISETTI (U.S.A.)

The Esky Cards were sets of numbered jumbo postcards released in packs (pictured here) by Esquire Magazine in 1945. This #2 Hank Luisetti card was the only basketball card in their "Great Moments in Sports" set #14, which also notably included a Bobby Jones golf card. The image on the card is from the painting "Luisetti Scores Again" by James Bingham, which features Luisetti playing in a game at Madison Square Garden in 1936. The painting was also featured in Esquire Magazine in 1944. There are only a couple graded examples of this card.

Measurements: 4.5" x 7"
