Historical Hockey and Sports Memorabilia Auction Winter 2023
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/28/2023
Fans of T206 baseball cards and other curious hobbyists may be interested in this chance to score 26 in one swoop, with the small stack featuring examples that all have Sweet Caporal backs. As our images reveal, most have back damage as all were removed from a scrapbook, with paper loss and/or staining the visible flaws. We count but four that show little or no evidence of once having been pasted, with however all 26 exhibiting handling and corner/edge wear, to go along with varying amounts/degrees of creasing. The full (random) list is below, with the first three subjects, led by legendary player and manager John McGraw and joined by Hal Chase and Bobby Wallace, the most notable. Check them all out and let us know if you have aspirations of being the new owner of these fascinating little charmers.
Comprising the lot are: John McGraw (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - finger in air), Hal Chase (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - throwing/white cap), Bobby Wallace (Sweet Caporal 150/30), George Mullin (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - throwing), Russ Ford (Sweet Caporal 350-460/30), Jake Weimer (Sweet Caporal 150/30), Simon Nicholls (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - hands on knees), Fred Jacklitsch (Sweet Caporal 150/30), Emil Batch (Sweet Caporal 350/30), Doc Grandall (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - no cap), Lee Tannehill (Sweet Caporal 150/30 - Chi., L.
