From the granddaddy of all baseball card issues comes this T206 White Border Fred Clarke Portrait, one of many important key cards from the legendary set, found here in an SGC 1 holder, and effectively representing the legendary Hall of Fame outfielder whose career spanned the 19th and 20th centuries. One of two Clarke variations in the fabled issue, this Portrait variation boasts 65/35 centering right to left and a slight bias to the top, and a compelling presentation on the front from the vivid red background that neatly sets off the portrait of Clarke; the Piedmont 150 back has crisp blue printing and only some light staining and toning.
