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.

SGC has only ever graded 16 total examples of this 1909 Ramly T204, with only seven receiving a higher grade than the VG 3 offered here of Philadelphia first baseman William Edward "Kitty" Bransfield.

Centering is just slightly west on the canvas, with very minor diamond cutting which leaves the top left corner slightly higher than the right. There is some edge wear and chipping that is so common with the set's gold borders, particularly in the corners. The top right corner has a minor crease, and there is some soiling just below the portrait, but the image itself is beautiful and clean. The reverse is mostly clean, with some soiling apparent near the bottom and right side, 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. This is an extraordinary example seldom seen with this sort of visual appeal.
