There are three different Bender cards included in the T206 set. One is a portrait, one shows him pitching against a background that does not include trees, and this slightly more artistic version, which shows him pitching against a background that does have trees. This version is the second most rare, having a print run just barely larger than the No Trees card.

Rounded corners are consistent with the grade on this colorful offering. The top border is a little thin and the centering is slightly west on the canvas, but the main reason for the technical grade is some creasing, particularly one starting along the low right edge and traveling up to the center middle of the image. The back boasts the beautiful green ink associated with the Sovereign text, as well as some light tobacco staining for character. PSA has only ever graded 20 total examples of this Sovereign back version of the Bender.
