Lot # 472: 1909-1911 T206 White Border Collection (15) - All Cycle, American Beauty, Sovereign, and Tolstoi Backs

Collection of fifteen different cards from the T206 White Borders series. Each card has an uncommon advertising back (American Beauty, Cycle, Sovereign, or Tolstoi) one that is not in the same league as Drum or Uzit, but still very unusual and seen far less often than standard Piedmont and Sweet Caporal backs. This collection consists of the following: F. Delehanty (Vg, Tolstoi back), Downs (Vg-Ex, American Beauty 350 back), Ferris (Pr-Fr due to small marks on front, Sovereign 150 back), Ford (Gd, Tolstoi back), Krause/pitching (Fr due to a bit of adhesive residue on reverse, Sovereign 350 back), Kruger (Fr-Gd, Sovereign 350 back), Lobert (Vg-Ex, Sovereign 150 back), Magee/with bat (Vg-Ex+, Sovereign 350 back), Murray/portrait (Pr-Fr, Sovereign 460 back), Oberlin (Pr-Fr due to piece of tape on reverse, Cycle 350 back), Quinn (Gd+, American Beauty 350 back), Schlei/portrait (Fr, Sovereign 460 back), Sheckard/no glove showing (possible slight trim to top edge, otherwise Vg-Ex, Sovereign 350 back), Shipke (Gd, Sovereign 350 back), and Unglaub (Gd, Sovereign 350 back). This is an attractive medium- to lower-grade T206 group that is especially noteworthy for their desirable and different advertising backs! Total: 15 cards.
