1911 T3 Turkey Red Cabinets #27 Christy Mathewson Checklist Back PSA 6 EX-MT - Highest PSA Example!!
PINNACLE MATTY!!! The king of all turn-of-the-century pitchers, Christy Mathewson's highly coveted T3 Cabinet is presented here in an absolutely spectacular PSA 6 holder, sharing the spotlight with three other examples as the finest of its kind! The immortal Cooperstown inductee is no stranger to best-of-the-rest stature, with Matty's 373 lifetime wins tying him with Grover Alexander for the most all-time NL victories. Christy's three complete game shutouts in the 1905 World Series prompted Connie Mack to so eloquently state, "Mathewson is the greatest pitcher I ever saw. It was a pleasure to watch him pitch when he wasn't pitching against you!" The most captivating aspect of Matty's T3 is the classic Carl Horner hands-at-chest pitching pose made famous on two of his T206 subjects and his E93 Standard Caramel. Via the crystal-clear clarity and brilliant hues, the Christian Gentleman appears as if he is about to deliver one of his unhittable pitches, and the sparkling surfaces have eluded any notable flaws. While some subtle corner wear prevents a higher grade, the current PSA 6 pinnacle assessment truly substantiates why you should ride this Big Six marvel directly to the winner's circle!
