Sharp portrait of one of the hobby"s most beloved and widely-collected players. "Big Six" is featured here on his M116 Sporting Life card in a very popular portrait image one of the indelible images of Mathewson that seems along with his T206 pitching pose and his Conlon photos to be the image used to represent Mathewson virtually everywhere.This card graded EX+ by SGC has features that far exceed the assigned grade. Large bold borders sharp corners and a clean unblemished surface are the card"s most distinguishing characteristics along with a clean and bold Type 3 back. A very slight ding on the bottom left corner is the flaw that likely accounts for the card not being in a higher holder.A very strong example of a popular card.Population DataSGC Population: 47 total graded 4 at this level 5 higherPSA Population: 78 total graded 0 at this level 43 higher
