Curtis Wilkerson Autographed 1991 Fleer #438 Chicago Cubs Card
Add a signed card of versatile Major League infielder Curtis Wilkerson with this 1991 Fleer #438 Chicago Cubs card, personally autographed by the former Rangers, Cubs, Pirates and Royals utility man. The card is correctly cataloged as 1991 Fleer #438 and features Wilkerson with Chicago.
Wilkerson spent 11 seasons in the Major Leagues from 1983 through 1993, building his career largely on speed and defensive versatility. A switch-hitter, he appeared at shortstop, second base and third base, while also seeing occasional time in the outfield. He finished his career with 600 hits and 81 stolen bases in 972 games.
Originally selected by the Texas Rangers in the fourth round of the 1980 MLB Draft, Wilkerson reached the majors in 1983 and spent six seasons with Texas. His most productive offensive season came in 1986, when he collected 130 hits and stole 21 bases for the Rangers.
Wilkerson joined the Chicago Cubs during the 1989 season and remained with the club through 1990. During his Cubs tenure, his versatility was particularly usefulhe appeared primarily at third base and second base while also seeing action at shortstop and in the outfield.
The 1991 Fleer #438 is an interesting transitional card because it continued to feature Wilkerson with Chicago even though he played the 1991 season with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He appeared in 85 games for Pittsburgh before moving to the Kansas City Royals for the final two seasons of his Major League career.
The familiar bright yellow borders of 1991 Fleer make this one of the most recognizable designs of the early 1990s, and Wilkerson's card fits nicely into a collection of signed Cubs players or a comprehensive autograph run from the set.
