Bold colors immediately catch your eye on this Bobby Byrne offering, but it's the card's details which give it lasting appeal. An orange sky and green grass background behind Byrne wearing his gray St. Louis uniform and red undershirt are perfectly framed by clean, white borders on all four sides. Sharp edges and corners elevate this example to a grade rarely seen for this card. The Sweet Cap back is boldly printed and centered just east and north on the canvas, with some light tobacco staining keeping it from grading even higher than it already did. PSA has only ever graded 16 total examples of this Sweet Caporal 350/25 back version of the Byrne, with only ONE receiving a higher grade than the EX+ 5.5 offered here.
