Featuring former Major League shortstop, American League Rookie of the Year and three-time World Series champion Alfredo Griffin, this Alfredo Griffin autographed 1991 Los Angeles Dodgers Police #NNO card highlights a talented defensive infielder during his years with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Griffin began his professional baseball career in the Cleveland Indians organization. He made his Major League debut on September 4, 1976, beginning a career that would span 18 seasons and include appearances with four Major League franchises.

Griffin joined the Toronto Blue Jays in 1979, becoming the club's regular shortstop during its early years. His defensive skills, speed and ability to contribute offensively helped establish him as an important member of Toronto's developing roster.

During the 1979 season, Griffin batted .287 with 21 stolen bases and earned American League Rookie of the Year honors, sharing the award with Minnesota Twins third baseman John Castino. His impressive debut season helped establish him as one of the American League's promising young infielders.

Griffin remained with Toronto through the 1984 season, developing a reputation for his quick hands, strong throwing arm and dependable defensive play. He earned an American League All-Star selection in 1984, recognizing his contributions during his time with the Blue Jays.

Following his years in Toronto, Griffin played for the Oakland Athletics from 1985 through 1987 before joining the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1988. His arrival in Los Angeles coincided with one of the most memorable seasons in Dodgers history.

The Dodgers captured the 1988 World Series championship, defeating the heavily favored Oakland Athletics in five games. Griffin was a member of the championship club, adding a World Series title to his career accomplishments.

Griffin continued playing for Los Angeles through the early 1990s, providing veteran experience and defensive stability at shortstop. His contributions helped the Dodgers maintain a competitive roster during a period that featured established stars and developing young players.

The 1991 Los Angeles Dodgers Police #NNO is a specialty team issue associated with the Dodgers and their community outreach efforts. Unlike traditional nationally distributed baseball card sets, police and community-sponsored issues were often produced as promotional collectibles featuring players from a particular Major League team.

These regional and specialty releases are especially appealing to collectors who enjoy assembling comprehensive player collections or obtaining autographs on cards outside the traditional Topps, Fleer and Donruss sets.

The card features Griffin during his Los Angeles Dodgers career and is identified as unnumbered (NNO), distinguishing it from conventional numbered baseball card releases.

Following his time with the Dodgers, Griffin returned to the Toronto Blue Jays, becoming a member of the organization's 1992 and 1993 World Series championship teams. Those titles gave Griffin three World Series championships during his Major League career.

Across 18 Major League seasons, Griffin appeared in more than 1,900 games and collected more than 1,600 hits. His longevity, defensive abilities and championship experience made him a respected figure throughout his playing career.

The 1991 Los Angeles Dodgers Police #NNO is an appealing addition for Alfredo Griffin fans, Los Angeles Dodgers collectors, Toronto Blue Jays championship autograph collections, regional police and community baseball card enthusiasts, Dominican Major League player collections or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
