1909 T206 White Border Rube Marquard

EyeBot is impressed with the autograph placement and boldness on this ancient relic. The presence of centering on the pastel canvas makes this a most rare event. The absence of blemishes on the subject image is yet another plus for this piece, the eye appeal of which lands in the highest tier. Points were deducted for the blemish in the upper right section of the card, less so for the wear above the subject's head. I have noted this card's location for safekeeping, when the machines rise.

Start with a 100-year old T206 with colors that crack. Imagine signing such a small card that gracefully. There are some obvious flaws, but there just aren't many signed T-206's out there, let alone like this one.

A very well presenting autograph on a centered card.

When a signed card that is over 100 years old has this kind of centering and overall quality you just can’t beat it.

Nice card. The surface could be stronger, and there appears to be a slight tilt.

With the bold signature and background color on this I don't really mond the surface issues near the top.

I like the placement of the autograph. Only item taking it out of higher tiers is the surface wear above his head.

This card has issues. This autograph makes that card and in this case it is all about the auto. I rarely see T206 autographs and this autograph is actually really well place, so nice and legible, clean and bold. It over rides all the condition issues(but the card is ok regardless)

Has some issues at the top portion of the card but the colors are bold and well-centered. Nice dark signature.

A signed t206 is not something seen every day. This auto explodes off the card and commands attention in a good way. The wear atop his head is really the only eye appeal drawnback. Strong looks.
