Description
1909-11 T206 Piedmont Sherry Magee "Magie" Error SGC 50 VG/EX 4 - The Most Famous Hobby Error! The severely abridged print runs can be caused by force, like Honus Wagner personally putting a stop to his own appearance in the T206 set, or a simple mistake. In this case, the error is one of the most noted in all the hobby. Sherry Magee was a good player on the field who amassed over 2,000 hits and almost 1,200 RBIs during his career but the misspelling of his last name (caught and corrected very early) has made him a "Hall of Famer" in the card collecting hobby.Many of the most advanced collections of T206s are short this coveted "MAGIE" variation. The offered example has been graded SGC 50 VG/EX 4 and is a solid representation that upon first glance it appears to be in excellent condition. Currently, there are just 66 total examples reviewed by SGC. The portrait offers deep rich hues and tight registration, mildly affected but spotting that is printing imperfections and not surface loss. This is an attractive card that represents a huge step toward elevating your T206 collection. The reverse displays a "Piedmont - 150 Subjects" with a Factory 25 designation. This is from a new to the hobby find and is being offered for the first time at auction.
