T204 Ramly Cigarettes cards of 1909 feature a beautiful black-and-white portrait of each player encircled in an ornate border with the player's name, position, and team affiliation printed at the bottom. The cards, which are embossed and highlighted with gold ink, are extremely condition-sensitive because they are printed on flimsy paper. The gold borders are also very susceptible to chipping, as is the case with most gold-bordered cards. Between the outstanding player selection and the overall beauty of the issue, higher-grade examples from the set are extremely pricey, making affordable specimens tough to find.

PSA has only ever graded 22 total examples of this 1909 Ramly T204 Brooklyn shortstop John Hummel (erroneously spelled "Hummell" on the card).

Centering is nice, save for some minor diamond cutting which leaves the top left corner just a hair higher than the right. There is some edge wear and chipping that is so common with the set's gold borders, particularly in the rounded corners. The top right and bottom right corners each exhibit some creasing, and there is some paper loss running horizontally across Hummel's chin in the portrait area. The reverse is fairly clean, though somewhat dark, with some light soiling appearing especially near the bottom. Soiling is not unusual for these cards, where the embossing can act like a dust magnet.

Attractive Ramlys are among the most beautiful cards in the hobby, but the eye appeal of the issue can sometimes suffer in the lower grades. The scarcity of this issue far outweighs any perceived cosmetic flaws on this example.
