From the granddaddy of all baseball card issues comes this T206 White Border Nap Lajoie With Bat card, one of many important key cards from the legendary set, found here in a PSA 1 holder. Lajoie was easily one of the premier stars whose career spanned the 19th and 20th centuries, a five-time batting champion and certainly the greatest second baseman of his era and beyond. The card has significant creasing, dirt, staining and some paper loss across the front, yet it still provides a decent presentation with the pastel yellow and green background that sets off the Lajoie With Bat image. One of three Lajoie variations in the fabled issue, this example has decent centering and only slightly rounded corners; the Polar Bear Back reveals heavy staining some dirt.
