Graded 10 PR 1 by SGC. Forever compared to the T206 Wagner in terms of rarity, it can be stated definitively that the white-bordered tobacco insert card of Eddie Plank is the second most valuable baseball card in our hobby. Many theories have been advanced in the ongoing effort to explain its scarcity, but none have been proven. Nevertheless, the T206 card of Plank is one of the hobby's iconic cards and is extremely scarce in any condition. The offered example has definitely been graded accurately by SGC. It is not for the faint of heart. It exhibits considerable corner wear and heavy creasing throughout. The card still displays fairly well and would fill a hole in a collector's T206 set. The reverse has a "Sweet Caporal 350" advertisement that is actually fairly clean. Poor condition.
