(LOT 112)
T206 Bobby Wallace – Sweet Caporal 150 Subjects/Factory 30 (PSA NM/MT 8) - " 1 of 1" & Highest Graded Sweet Cap!

This magnificent PSA 8 T206 offering of Hall of Famer Bobby Wallace currently stands alone as the finest Sweet Caporal Wallace on the illustrious PSA "Pop" chart! Hall of Fame shortstop Bobby Wallace played an amazing 25 years in the Major Leagues, with few people realizing that this defensive "standout" was the 1st shortstop to be elected to baseball's illustrious, preceding Joe Cronin by three years. He was generally accepted as the best "turn of the century" shortstop and is one of the few players to ever be enshrined into Cooperstown for their fielding ability, alone.

His classic Carl Horner portrait pose is spectacular, depicting superior registration, near "dead-on" 50/50 centreing, and a brilliant blend of gray and brown colors and ably assisted by a sparkling yellow/orange background. The four corners and edging are blistering sharp, practically as fresh as the original Factory No. 30 vendor cut, the surfaces are ultra-clean and the dazzling white borders reveal virtually no blemishes. A "1 of 1" Sweet Cap that stands as the "best of the rest", now is your golden opportunity to emulate Wallace's ability for consistently "picking-up" ground balls by seizing this miraculous keepsake via a simple final bid!
