The first series of cards in the T206 set were issued beginning in 1909 in cigarette and loose tobacco packs through 16 different brands owned by the American Tobacco Company. It is a landmark set in the history of baseball card collecting due to its size and rarity, with cards of over 500 major and minor-league players issued in the set through 1911. It is known informally as the "White Border" set due to the distinctive white borders surrounding the quality color lithographs on each card.

Gorgeous colors steal the show on this action pose of Hall of Famer Roger Bresnahan. A yellow and orange sky blaze over the green grass background with some buildings in the distance. Centering is east on the canvas, with corners and edges consistent with the grade. Some chipping along the bottom edge and soiling around the perimeter keeps this card from grading higher than it already has. The printing on the Piedmont back is dark and bold, with only a small spot of soiling near the bottom edge. A fantastic example of the Hall of Famer with tremendous eye appeal.
