This is an important card from arguably the most important baseball card issue ever created, a T206 White Border Hugh Duffy card with Polar Bear back, found here in a PSA 1 holder. The card has decent centering side to side and slight bias to the top, with rounded corners and boasting a nice presentation of the legendary 19th Century Hall of Famer with the vivid, pastel yellow and green background colors that nicely showcase the Duffy image; the outfielder logged the highest batting average in MLB history with a .440 batting average in his Triple Crown season in 1894. His baseball career spanned nearly seven decades, with service as a player, manager, coach, club executive and team owner.
