From the granddaddy of all baseball card issues comes this T206 White Border Jake Beckley Sovereign 350 card, one of many important key cards from the legendary set, found here in a PSA 2 holder, and a nice tribute to the legendary Hall of Fame first sacker whose career in the National League spanned the 19th and 20th centuries. It is a card that presents handsomely, with a striking rendering of the vivid red background that so effectively sets off the Beckley image. The card surface on the front is excellent, almost problem-free save only for a tiny speck of paper loss, with good centering side to side and off center to the bottom; the Sovereign 350 back reveals some notable staining and toning.
