About The Set: The 1909-11 T206 White Border tobacco 523 card set is arguably the most sought after and collected baseball card set produced prior to 1950. The white border tobacco cards were produced by multiple tobacco brands, and used as a marketing scheme to sell cigarettes and tobacco products. Each individual tobacco company printed their name/insignia on the back of the card. The most common backs are from Piedmont and Sweet Caporal. Other backs were less common and command a higher value, depending on the rarity of the card/brands printed on the back. Back scarcity rankings from T206resource . org (from Wikipedia): T206 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The T206 Honus Wagner The tobacco card set known as T206 was issued from 1909 to 1911 in cigarette and loose tobacco packs through 16 different brands owned by the American Tobacco Company. It is a landmark set in the history of baseball card collecting, due to its size, rarity, and the quality of its color lithographs. History The name T206 refers to the catalog designation assigned by Jefferson Burdick in his book The American Card Catalog. It is also known informally as the “White Border” set due to the distinctive white borders surrounding the lithographs on each card. The T206 set consists of 523 cards. Over 100 of the cards picture minor league players. There are also multiple cards for the same player in different poses, different uniforms, or even with different teams after being traded (since the set was issued over a period of three years). The cards measure 1-7/16″ x 2-5/8″ which is considered by many collectors to be the standard tobacco card size. The T206 set is the most popular and widely collected set of the tobacco/pre-war era. The historical significance of the set as well as the large number of variations give it enormous appeal to collectors. In addition, the set features many Baseball Hall of Fame members including Ty Cobb (who is pictured on 4 different cards), Walter Johnson, Cy Young, and Christy Mathewson. The value of the cards has led to a great deal of counterfeiting over the years. The T206 Collection: The Players & Their Stories by Tom and Ellen Zappala and Peter Randall Publishers highlights the personal and professional lives of the players in the collection and discusses the values of the cards as well as the mystique behind the collection. The Honus Wagner card Main article: T206 Honus Wagner The T206 Wagner is the most valuable baseball card in existence, and even damaged examples are valued at $100,000 or more.[1] This is in part because of Wagner’s place among baseball’s immortals, as he was an original Hall of Fame inductee. More importantly, it is one of the scarcest cards from the most prominent of all vintage card sets. Rarity It is estimated that between 50 and 200 Wagner cards were ever distributed to the public,[2][3] and fewer still have survived to the present day. Several theories exist as to why the card is so rare. One theory is that the printing plate used to create Wagner’s card broke early on in the production process, but Wagner was a major star at the time and new plates would almost certainly have been created. Another theory is that there was a copyright dispute between the American Tobacco Company and the artist who created the Wagner lithograph.[4] The most commonly accepted theory is that the card was pulled from production because Wagner himself objected to the production of the card, but his motivation is unclear. Reports at the time indicated Wagner did not wish to associate himself with cigarettes,[5] possibly because he did not want to encourage children to smoke.[1] However, some collectors and historians have pointed out that Wagner, a user of chewing tobacco, allowed his image to appear on cigar boxes and other tobacco-related products prior to 1909 and may have objected to the card simply because he wanted more financial compensation for the use of his image.[1][6] Value A high-quality example of the Wagner card was sold at auction on eBay in 2000 for US$1.265 million.[2] In February 2007, the same card was sold for a record US$2.35 million.[7] In September 2007, the Wagner card changed hands again when SCP Auctions of Mission Viejo, California, which had bought minority ownership, brokered a new sale—this time for US$2.8 million, to a private collector. On August 1, 2008, noted memorabilia dealer John Rogers of North Little Rock, Arkansas paid US$1.6 million for a PSA 5 Wagner. Rogers stated he “was prepared to go much higher and is pleased with his investment.” He added “the citizens of Arkansas deserve to see this treasure and I intend to make the card available to the public.”[8] In November 2010, a group of nuns from Baltimore sold a Wagner card for $262,000 in auction to Doug Walton, a sporting card store owner.[9] Brands that produced T206 cards Piedmont back of a T206. T206 cards were issued with 16 different backs, representing the 16 different brands of cigarettes/tobacco with which the cards were issued. Due to the same card having different backs, there are actually far more than 523 “different” T206 cards. The actual number of front/back combination is not fully known as collectors still discover new combinations from time to time. The 16 backs are: American Beauty – more thinly cut than other brands due to the narrower size of the cigarette packs Broadleaf Carolina Brights Cycle Drum El Principe De Gales Hindu – Found in both brown ink and red ink (rare) Lenox – Found in both brown ink and black ink Old Mill Piedmont Polar Bear – Only brand that is not cigarettes; Polar Bear was loose tobacco, also known as scrap tobacco Sovereign Sweet Caporal Tolstoi Ty Cobb Uzit Hooks Wiltse From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hooks Wiltse Pitcher Born: September 7, 1879 Hamilton, New York Died: January 21, 1959 (aged 79) Long Beach, New York Batted: Right Threw: Left MLB debut April 21, 1904 for the New York Giants Last MLB appearance September 25, 1915 for the Brooklyn Tip-Tops Career statistics Win–loss record 139-90 Earned run average 2.47 Strikeouts 965 Teams New York Giants (1904-1914) Brooklyn Tip-Tops (1915) Career highlights and awards National League pennant winner in 1904, 1905, 1911, 1912, and 1913 20-game winner in 1908 and 1909 George Leroy “Hooks” Wiltse (September 7, 1879 – January 21, 1959) was a professional baseball pitcher. He played twelve seasons in Major League Baseball from 1904 to 1915. He was the brother of pitcher Snake Wiltse. “Hooks” earned his nickname because of his exceptional curveball and was one of the earliest pitchers to have a curveball that was regarded as more effective than his fastball. From 1904 to 1914, he pitched for the National League’s New York Giants. During that time, he combined with teammate Christy Mathewson for 435 wins, making them one of the best lefty-righty duos in history. Wiltse won five pennants with the Giants and pitched 3.1 innings in the 1911 World Series. On July 4, 1908, Wiltse pitched a perfect game through 26 batters until he hit Philadelphia Phillies pitcher George McQuillan on a 2–2 count in a scoreless game. Umpire Cy Rigler later admitted that he should have called the previous pitch strike three, which would have ended the inning. Wiltse pitched on, winning 1–0 in ten innings, with the hit-batsman the only lapse separating him from a perfect game. In 1915, he jumped to the Brooklyn Tip-Tops of the Federal League, which is where he ended his major league career. He continued to play minor league baseball on and off until 1926.
