With extraordinary eye appeal for the grade this Wiltse boasts the Brown Hindu back variety that is recognized by T206Resource.com as the 12th most scarce among the T206 issue. While the card exhibits corner wear and mild creasing across the face (visible in the scan) the majority of the issues accounting for the grade lie on the card back. Evidence that the card has been removed from a scrapbook takes the form of paper loss along the top of the card obscuring some of the "Hindu" logo along with spots of loss along the bottom as well. Still in the world of T206 back varieties demand for Brown Hindu examples is growing and with just three graded copies of this card currently in existence this Wiltse is very scarce. Population DataPSA Population Report: 1 total graded.* SGC Population Report: 2 graded both higher. *Note that PSA"s population reports do not accurately describe total population of T206 backs due to their relatively recent adaptation of a system which recognizes T206 back varieties.
