T204 Ramly Cigarettes cards of 1909 feature a beautiful black-and-white portrait of each player encircled in an ornate border with the player's name, position, and team affiliation printed at the bottom. The cards, which are embossed and highlighted with gold ink, are extremely condition-sensitive because they are printed on flimsy paper. The gold borders are also very susceptible to chipping, as is the case with most gold-bordered cards. Between the outstanding player selection and the overall beauty of the issue, higher-grade examples from the set are extremely pricey, making affordable specimens tough to find.

SGC has only ever graded 17 total examples of this 1909 Ramly T204 of Chicago catcher Patrick Joseph "Pat" Moran.

Centering is very slightly south on the canvas, but looks really nice overall. There is some light edge wear and chipping that is so common with the set's gold borders, particularly in the corners. However, the front is really clean and the portrait is bright and beautiful. The reverse is wonderfully clean as well, with only light soiling surrounding the details of the embossing. Soiling is not unusual for these cards, where the embossing can act like a dust magnet.

Attractive Ramlys are among the most beautiful cards in the hobby, but the eye appeal of the issue can sometimes suffer in the lower grades. Nevertheless, the scarcity of this issue far outweighs any perceived cosmetic flaws on this example.
