Description
1909-11 T206 Piedmont Sherry Magee "Magie" Error SGC 10 Poor 1 - The Most Famous Hobby Typo! Severely abridged print runs can be caused by force, like Honus Wagner personally putting a stop to his own appearance or by a simple mistake. For one of the most famous error cards in the hobby, one can almost hear the frustrated pressman screaming, "He spells it how?" and the ear-bending screech as the massive multi-color press comes to a halt. Sherry Magee was a solid player for the Phillies who amassed over 2,000 hits and almost 1,200 RBIs during his career but the misspelling of his name has made him a "Hall of Famer" in the card collecting hobby. The "Magie" typo was caught and corrected very early in the process leaving even the most advanced collections of T206s cards short of this coveted mishap. This new to the hobby example has been graded SGC 10 Poor 1 due to the obvious spot of loss on the front and small spots of loss on the reverse. A solid representation, the obverse is a striking display of color and surface quality. A pair of corner creases and wear completes our condition assessment. The reverse shows surface wear including a few small spots of loss but shows no stains or soiling. This is an attractive card that represents a huge step toward elevating your T206 collection.View Certification and Population Details from PSA
