Among the difficult 20-card Oxford Confectionery set, the Walter Johnson card is clearly one of the keys.  The set is a unique and very interesting one, featuring 14 eventual Hall of Famers, including Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson and Grover Cleveland Alexander.  Each of the set's sepia-toned cards measure 1 5/8" x 2 1/4" and are generally fraught with condition issues.  PSA's grade of VG 3 speaks to corner rounding and some surface wear that is most pronounced at the corners.  The image of Johnson is clear despite the wear.  A less frequently-seen card from one of the most important players of his era.
