Grouping of seven lower-grade Hall of Famers from the T206 set each with more severe condition flaws. As the T206 set continues its incessant growth in popularity Hall of Famers from the set continue to escalate in price. In many cases such cards have become unaffordable for many collectors thus making it difficult to assemble even smaller subsets like team sets or back runs that include Hall of Famers.In this lot we have put together a group of lower-grade Hall of Famers that due to condition should remain at an affordable level for such a collector. Containing seven of the set"s many Hall of Famers each card would grade POOR but most still retain enough eye appeal to be attractive additions to a low-grade set.Included here: Christy Mathewson (Dark Cap - significant wear staining tears creases and discoloration throughout along with paper loss on the reverse) Addie Joss (pitching - heavily creased) Rube Waddell (portrait heavy creasing and paper separation) Joe Tinker (creasing and edge wear along with paper loss on the reverse) George Davis (creasing) Johnny Evers (batting - heavy creasing) and Joe Kelley (Heavy creasing wear tears and edge chipping). As an added bonus three of the seven cards - Joss Mathewson and Kelley - have tougher Polar Bear backs.An affordable grouping of Hall of Famers for the truly advanced collector.
