It's well-known among advanced T206 collectors that the "off brands" often exhibit the boldest and most colorful examples of the lithographer's art and this Cycle 460 Addie Joss in SGC 5 is a textbook example. The golden-honey glow of the sunset backstopping a determined Joss in his finest Cleveland togs yields a first-rate study in darker tones, with the cupola of Cleveland's League Park prominent over his shoulder. As it turned out, the card would serve as an inadvertent double memorial as Joss, sidelined midway through the 1910 season with arm trouble, would end up perishing from meningitis in April 1911 as he was working his way back into shape. Too the wooden-stand League Park, which had served Cleveland well for almost two decades, was replaced in 1910 by a concrete and steel version that lacked both the cupola and the charm of its predecessor.

Joss is part of the 55 subject 350/460 "regular" print group in T206, issued around the middle of 1910. A dozen or so different brands are represented in this print group, many of them, including Cycle, scarce and 460 are Cycles scarcer still in the brand ranking. Joss is cut "tight" along the bottom and the lack of a sliver of his name atop the card suggests this particular example was at the head of a column. There is some original product on the front of the card and the lower right corner took a hit somewhere along the way.  The reverse is fully intact but also displays the tight cut and the all-important Cycle Logo looks great.
