This is a key card from arguably the most coveted baseball card issue ever created, a 1910 T206 White Border Chief Bender Pitching – Trees in Background Sweet Caporal Back found here in an SGC Authentic (Evidence of Trim) holder, one of three variations of the legendary hurler in the issue. The card has a solid presentation on the front, with 80/20 centering right to left and miscut to the top, and attractive blue and green background colors nicely showcasing the Bender Pitching image; the Sweet Caporal back reveals a good deal of staining and extraneous ballpoint writing and paper loss affecting perhaps 15 percent of the surface area.
