(LOT 550)
1909-11 T206 Frank Chance Portrait Red Hindu Brown PSA 6 EX-MT - POP 1; Highest Graded Hindu Brown Chance Portrait!

HIGHEST GRADED BROWN HINDU!!! One of the scarcer T206 ad backs is the ever-elusive Brown Hindu, with this unique for the grade, PSA 6 EX-MT Frank Chance Portrait Red Hindu Brown marvel proudly standing tall as the sole and highest graded specimen! Ranked as the 14th scarcest T206 ad back on the prestigious T206 Resource website (out of 39 different ad backs), this one of a kind marvel also bests any SGC encapsulated Brown Hindu by two full grades. The legendary Chance will forever be linked to the iconic "Tinker to Evers to Chance" double play combination, and while a fine first sacker and batsman, Chance's place in Cooperstown was solidified by managing the Cubbies to two world championships in 1907-08. The immortal Carl Horner portrait image reveals a super-eye-pleasing red background encompassing Chance's classic pose. Fine resolution, near-perfect centering, and relatively clean surfaces are the highlights of this incredible T206 obscurity, with modest corner wear (especially the two upper corners) preventing a higher grade. A highly-coveted Cooperstown inductee boasting an extremely eclectic Brown Hindu verso, it merits a final resting place in any world-class tobacco gathering!
