(LOT 91)
T206 Clark Griffith "Batting" – Cycle 460 (PSA NM/MT 8) - " 1 of 1" Cycle 460; Highest Graded Cycle 460!

One of the T206 collecting frenzies is assembling rare ad back high-grade Hall of Famers, and presented here is one you simply don't' see very often. This miraculous PSA 8 Clark Griffith "batting" gem just happens to carry the very scarce Cycle 460 advertisement, placing it as the SOLE and HIGHEST GRADED Cycle Griffith on the planet! Clark Griffith was nicknamed the "Old Fox", and while winning 240 games over a super major league career was more renowned for his 20-year managerial stint with four different ball clubs as well as becoming the major owner of the Washington Nationals.

His renowned batting image retains a majority of the original blue orange, yellow and green hued luster from its original release date a century ago, with the illustration situated between four bright white borders. Ultra-sharp corner tips, fine edging, near-immaculate surfaces and a super clean critical "CYCLE 460" verso complete this extremely "rare for the grade" masterpiece that would immediately become one of the centerpiece attractions of any sophisticated "rare ad back" T206 gathering!
