"The Pitcher's Cache" - An original owner collection of 1909-11 T206 cards

The following twelve lots originate from an exceptional T206 collection that traces its origins back over a century to a young pitcher who played "semi-pro" baseball in 1910 at the age of 18. According to family lore, it was around this time that he began carefully assembling what would become a meticulously preserved and lovingly curated album of T206 baseball cards. Passed down through generations, the collection has remained in the same family for an astonishing 115 years, an increasingly rare and treasured provenance in the hobby.

The album contained a near-complete set of T206 cards, remarkably without duplication-an extraordinary accomplishment, especially for a collector acquiring the cards during the original period of issue. The cards were thoughtfully organized and harmlessly corner mounted, with evidence of a deliberate effort to group teams in the order of their 1910 season standings. The Philadelphia Athletics, champions of that year's World Series, appear first-perhaps offering a clue to the original collector's favorite team.

Thanks to over a century of careful storage, the cards remain in remarkable condition. Their colors are vivid, their surfaces bright, and many retain crisp eye appeal that far exceeds their technical grades. This is the first of several offerings from this collection to be presented over forthcoming auctions.
