June 15, 2023: Tobacco Cards Only Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/15/2023
Here’s an outstanding example of a key card of the legendary Smoky Joe Wood from the elegant 1912 T207 Brown Border issue, a unique design of a kind of somber-brown motif that followed several years of colorful tobacco sets that rank among the most important in hobby history. The offered card is in a PSA 1.5 holder, with a slight centering bias to the right, some creasing and a bit of the ubiquitous “crackling” that often confronts this high-gloss issue, along with slightly rounded corners; the Recruit Little Cigars back is very presentable with some modest staining and toning, creating a decent presentation of the biography and statistics of the great Hall of Fame right-hander.
