1911 T217 Mono Cigarettes SGC-Graded Near-Complete Set (16/25)

Rarely offered near-complete set of T217 Mono Cigarettes consisting of sixteen different (out of twenty-five) cards in this extremely elusive issue. Each card is graded and encapsulated by SGC. The 25-card T217 Mono Cigarettes set is one of the rarest of all Pacific Coast League issues and also one of the rarest of all 1910-era tobacco-card issues. Over the years we have had a handful of sample cards from this series, but this is only the second substantial collection like the group offered here. The SGC grades are as follows: Three GOOD 30: Criger, Delmas, Smith (batting). Four FAIR 20: Aiken, Bernard, Burrell, and Metzger. Five POOR 10: Chadbourn, Couchman, Howard, Knight, and Thorsen. Four Authentic: Delhi (glove at shoulder), Knapp, Peckinpaugh, and Wares. This is an exceptional and very rarely offered near-complete set of T217 Mono Cigarettes, one of the most popular, elusive, and distinctive 1910s card issues.
