June 15, 2023: Tobacco Cards Only Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/15/2023
From the granddaddy of all baseball card issues comes this T206 White Border Clark Griffith Batting, one of many important key cards from the legendary set, found here in a PSA 1 (m/c) holder, and effectively representing the legendary Hall of Fame pitcher, manager and club executive whose career spanned the 19th and 20th centuries. One of two Griffith variations in the fabled issue, this Batting variation has decent centering left to right and is miscut at the bottom enough to eliminate the player name and team. It provides a nice presentation on the front from the yellow and green pastel background that neatly sets off the Griffith Batting image; the Piedmont 350 back reveals some dirt, staining and toning, along with extraneous pencil notations that are visible only with careful examination.
