Lot # 475: 1909-1911 T206 White Border Collection (25) Including Hal Chase - All Sovereign Backs!

Presented is a collection of twenty-five different cards from the classic T206 White Border series composed exclusively of cards featuring a desirable Sovereign advertising reverse. Sovereign is an uncommon back, not in the same league as Drum or Uzit, but unusual and seen far less often than the standard Piedmont or Sweet Caporal advertising backs. The collection is highlighted by New York Highlanders star Hal Chase. Condition is Pr to Fr overall, with two Gd and one Vg. This collection consists of the following: Ames/hands at chest, Bell/hands above head, Birmingham, Bradley/portrait, Chase/throwing, white cap (Fr), J.J. Clarke, Conroy/fielding, Crandall/portrait, no cap, Durham, Gilbert, Hahn, Jacklitsch, T. Jones, Karger, Lobert (trimmed), Manning/batting, Merkle/portrait, Murphy/throwing, Nicholls/hands on knees, Parent, Pastorius, Powers, Schlei/catching, Stahl/no glove shows, and Turner. This is a very presentable lower-grade collection of T206 tobacco cards, all featuring the desirable Sovereign advertising back. Total: 25 cards.
