Easily the most popular of all the 1920s strip card sets, the W514 set of 1919-21 features a large checklist of 120 players issued in 10-card strips meant to be cut along dotted lines separating each card. The result as with many strip cards are a host of off-condition cards that were often torn rather than carefully cut, and as a result miscuts and poorly-shorn borders are common condition flaws. The flimsy paper on which the cards were printed is also an issue making high-grade examples very difficult to obtain. 

Chicago Manager Kid Gleason is the subject of this example, graded Fair 1.5 by SGC due to a soft left edge, as well as some surface abrasions which cause minor paper loss along the left edge and in the top left corner. The other corners and edges are nice, especially for a hand cut card, and the colors have remained bright and bold. Regardless of the grade, the scarcity of this issue far outweighs any cosmetic flaws on this example.

SGC has only ever graded 18 total examples of this W514, with only ten receiving a higher grade than the Fair 1.5 offered here of Chicago Manager Kid Gleason.
