The Hall of Famer comes set with his hands at his chest before delivering a pitch in this white cap version of his T206 card. A blue sky and green grass background add plenty of color to this image which is otherwise dominated by white. Nice centering automatically gives this card better eye appeal than its grade, which can be explained by a number of condition factors. Rounded corners, edge chipping, and minor creasing are all present, but the main culprits are the creasing and paper/color loss. The print on the Sweet Cap back remains strong, while a bold red box covers the final line of text. Despite its flaws, this is still a wonderful card with tremendous eye appeal.
