(LOT 156)
1911 T205 Christy Mathewson Cycle 1 Loss Variation PSA 2 Good

RARE MATTY!!!... One of the exciting aspects of card collecting continues to be the vast potential for "variation" finds throughout the hobby. One of those variations relates to the T205 gold border Christy Mathewson "Cycle Cigarette" specimen with all "Cycle Back" Mathewson cards depicting the iconic hurler having a single loss during the 1908 season, inadvertently omitting a "1" since "Matty" actually lost 11 games in 1908. Most hobby experts agree that this "Cycle 1 Loss" Mathewson merits distinction as one of the "top 5" variations within the prestigious T205 gold border set. Offered in a PSA 2 GOOD holder.
