Christy Mathewson is one of the most widely-collected deadball era players his legend remaining strong after more than 100 years. His "Dark Cap" T206 pose remains one of the iconic images from the set. This example graded VG 40 by SGC has both a tough El Principe De Gales reverse as well as a miscut bottom edge resulting in Matty's name being truncated at the bottom of the card. With the T206 issue however such print "freaks" are highly desirable. An excellent card of a key Hall of Famer. Population DataSGC Population: 10 total graded 3 at this level 6 higherPSA Population: 6 total graded 2 at this level 1 higher* *Please note that PSA just recently began to differentiate between T206 back variations in their population reports so it is entirely possible that other examples of this card may have been graded by PSA and classified in their pop reports as "unknown back."
