This T206 Polar Bear card shows 39 year old outfielder Ollie Pickering, notable as Cleveland's first batter in the American League's inaugural 1901 game. He continued to play and manage professionally into his 50s, more than a decade after this season in Minneapolis.

PSA's population reports show they grade Polar Bear backs at one-tenth the rate of Piedmont (its most common back), making them one of the tougher T206 variations. Its PSA PR 1 grade reflects rounded corners, horizontal creases, and penciled numbers on the reverse. The population report shows just 27 total graded.
