Had Musial hit two more home runs in 1948, he would have passed Ralph Kiner and Johnny Mize to lead the National League with 41 which would have won him the Triple Crown. 426 during his first stint with the Cardinals in 1941 (but he only played 12 games before the season ended that year). 376 batting average was the second-highest single season total of his Major League career having batted. Musial was simply on fire during the 1948 season turning in his highest single season totals for runs scored (135), RBI (131), and home runs (39). And along with the Yogi Berra rookie, Musial's card is one of the most expensive baseball cards in the entire set and hobby in general. One of two Stan Musial rookie cards, the 1948 Bowman #36 is considered the more popular of the two.
