1909 T206 Johnny Evers "w/Bat-Cubs on Shirt" – Piedmont 150 Subjects/Factory 25 (PSA EX/MT 6)
Widely regarded as the most obscure subjects of the three Johnny Evers T206 poses, this brilliant PSA 6 Evers "w/Bat-Cubs on Shirt" Piedmont 150 Subjects offering has only been bested by a mere 7 Piedmont examples listed on the PSA "Pop" chart, with only 2 other Piedmont specimens reflecting the PSA 6 assessment. Every baseball purist is all too familiar with the iconic "Tinker to Evers to Chance" double-play combination that spearheaded the Cubs to their last 2 championships in 1907 and 1908. Simply stated, Hall of Famer Johnny Evers was an unquestionable "winner", also leading the 1914 miracle Boston Braves to a world championship. Synonymous with Evers winning ways is this irrefutable T206 champion cardboard artifact that has miraculously retained many of its original pristine-like attributes.

We cannot imagine a finer testament to Evers immortal legacy than this exalted offering that will unquestionably be coveted by a myriad of T206 enthusiasts. The seldom-surfacing T206 "Cubs on Shirt" likeness of the star 2nd sacker portrays a superior "pack-fresh" image via the breathtaking Evers batting pose affixed to the ultra-popular tranquil blue/green setting. Atypical for this subject is the near-perfect horizontal centering, with the "side-to-side" positioning revealing a significant partiality towards the left edge (most likely preventing a "NM/7" assessment). Snow-like borders, relatively clean surfaces, four uniform right-angled corners and a super bold Piedmont Cigarettes verso complete this timeless marvel that continues to reside as the "toughest" Johnny Evers T206 subject to obtain portraying a PSA 6 or higher grade!
