From the granddaddy of all baseball card issues comes this T206 White Border Addie Joss Portrait card, one of many important key cards from the legendary set, found here in an SGC Authentic holder, a card that seemingly presents better than its technical, boasting a nice presentation with the pastel yellow background that so effectively sets off the Joss Portrait image. One of two Joss varieties in the fabled issue and the more expensive of the two, this Portrait example has decent centering all around and rounded corners; the Piedmont 150 back reveals very significant paper loss affecting perhaps 90 percent of the surface area, some of that being paper residue from having been affixed to a scrapbook.
