1911 T205 Gold Border Walter Johnson Sweet Caporal Back PSA 2.5 GOOD+
BIG TRAIN MARVEL!!! This T205 Gold Border Walter Johnson PSA 2.5 Sweet Caporal offering reveals atypically excellent centering and only some minimal gold border wear near the four corners. A majority of historians nominate the Big Train as baseball's greatest all-time pitcher. From a statistical perspective, Johnson's achievements have rightfully earned him that title, including a modern-day record of 417 victories, three Pitching Triple Crowns (1913, 1918 & 1924), five ERA titles, six times leading the league in victories, 12 strikeout titles, 3,508 strikeouts, a microscopic 2.17 lifetime ERA, and a record-setting 110 shutouts! Due to their extremely condition sensitive gold borders that were subjected to significant flaking/wear, finding ANY T205 specimen with a majority of their original hued borders is an excruciating task, let alone one representing the finest pitcher who ever toed a rubber.
