Another exceptional T206 scarcity the Southern Leaguer with Brown Hindu back. Brown Hindu is ranked by T206Resource as the #12 most scarce back just behind American Beauty 460. The Southern League designation adds an additional element of scarcity as these cards were an additional group of 48 subjects that were printed in late 1909 and distributed separately from the major-league players.Graded PR-FR 1 by PSA this card of William Edward "Buck" (not Bock as commonly spelled) Hooker of the Lynchburg Shoemakers exhibits all the qualities of a PR-FR condition card - significant creasing edge and corner wear throughout and general wear that discolors the reverse. The beautiful Hindu ad on the reverse is clearly visible however an excellent example of a scarce and difficult Southern Leaguer.Population DataPSA Population: 5 total graded 1 at this level 4 higher*SGC Population: 3 total graded 1 at this level 2 higher*Note that PSA just recently began classifying T206 cards by back variety so additional examples are likely graded and categorized as "unknown back."
