1909-11 T206 Hugh Duffy Sweet Caporal 350-460/42 PSA 7 NM – POP 2 Sweet Caporals; Only 3 PSA Sweet Caporals Graded Higher!
PACK-FRESH DUFFY!!! While HOF outfielder Hugh Duffy retired after the 1906 campaign, he eventually managed the Chicago White Sox in 1910, leading to his coveted T206 subject. This PSA 7 POP 2 Sweet Caporal 350-460 Subjects/Factory 42 offering has only been bested by a meager three PSA specimens! The immortal Hugh Duffy will always be best remembered for his 1894 season when his .440 batting average topped the charts as the highest single-season average in MLB history, while also pacing the Senior Circuit with 237 safeties and a remarkable 1.196 OPS. Duffy's classic batting pose exhibits crystal-clear clarity and is well centered between four snow-white borders. You can almost feel the intensity of Duffy's ominous expression, with the image set against a bright yellow, orange and green hued background. Other pack-fresh attributes include square corners, sparkling surfaces, and a bold red Sweet Caporal ad back boasting the rather obscure Factory 42!
