Jack Bushelman pitched just three seasons in the majors appearing in only 7 games. That was enough to get him depicted on a T207 card - with a bat. Bushelman who pitched in 3 games for the 1912 Red Sox won 100 games in the minors in a 7-year career on either side of his seasons with Boston. As with the other T207 card in this auction (and many of those we will be bringing you in our Spring sale) it is not the card of Bushelman itself that creates the value - it is the Broadleaf Cigarettes ad on the card reverse. The Broadleaf ad is perceived as more scarce than the more common Recruit ad on the backs of most T207 cards and thus is considered more valuable.Population DataSGC Population: 8 total graded 3 at this level 3 higherPSA Population: unknown (PSA does not classify T207 backs but has graded 12 T207 Bushelman cards in total. One of the more scarce cards in the set these 12 cards would appear with either Broadleaf Cycle or Anonymous backs)
