(LOT 604)
1909 E90-1 American Caramel Mordecai Brown (Chicago) PSA 6 EX-MT
ONE AND ONLY HIGHEST GRADED!!! One of the dead-ball eras legendary Hall of Famers, Brown achieved his iconic nickname when as a young farm-boy he accidently stuck his hand in a corn shredder, severely cutting his index finger and paralyzing his pinky finger. Fortunately for Brown, his deformed hand eventually seemed to be the primary reason for the uncanny movement on his pitches, leading him to 239 career wins and a spectacular 2.06 lifetime E.R.A. that ranks as the 3rd best lifetime figure behind Walsh and Joss (and surprisingly better than Walter Johnson and Christy Mathewson!). He was as good if not better than all "dead-ball" era pitchers, explaining why advanced enthusiasts scramble to obtain his rarest cardboard relics. Offered here is a 1909 E90-1 American Caramel Brown card in a stunning PSA 6 EX-MT holder, which is the one and only highest graded copy in the hobby!!!! One of the most desirable Mordecai Brown subjects, we highly advise you to seize this opportunity for future ownership.
