Attractive high-grade example from the fascinating Tango Eggs set. While the Bescher is among the two most commonly-found cards in the set any card from this issue is scarce. Discovered in 1991 it is thought that the set included 20 subjects and was not ever distributed since the initial find of 770 cards represents most of the known examples. Most of the known cards are sharp though off-center and are found in higher grades since they were not handled by collectors over the years. Despite the fact that Bescher (and Hughie Jennings) represent more than half the cards that came in the initial find the cards are still remarkably difficult to find. An outstanding example of a card issue that still contains many mysteries.Population Data PSA Population: 46 total graded 12 at this level none higherSGC Population: 42 total graded 9 at this level 3 higher
