Description
An iconic rarity!
1914 Boston Garter Tris Speaker SGC VG 3 - Only Two Graded
Examples on the SGC & PSA Census. The extremely rare 1914
Boston Garter Color series contains only a dozen baseball subjects
but eight would become honored members of Baseball's Hall of Fame.
Each example of these gorgeous window display cards is hotly
pursued because one can only guess how long it may be before the
next one will become available. This set is so incredibly rare, SGC
has yet to grade one card of each of the advertised subjects! Their
rarity is explained on the reverse as cards were intended only for
retailers to place in their windows meaning a quick discarding of
an old card to make room for the new. They were probably given to a
store's best customer or simply the one that simply asked for
them.Offered is Hall of Fame outfielder Tris Speaker. Graded SGC VG 3. The highest graded example of just two examples recorded on the PSA & SGC census combined. Speaker has not been recorded by PSA. The card displays no creases. Corners show a consistent rounding. The reverse is clean and has no surface loss. The full-figure portrait of Speaker is unique to the issue. This is nothing short of a phenomenal card to add to your collection.
