Attended a great card show in Wilmington, Ma yesterday with my 10 year old son. He is just becoming a fan of card collecting particularly of the T206 set (my wallet is anticipating future pain). Anyhow he picked up this card in a half-off bin. Probably trimmed. Admittedly I know next to nothing about this set or any other from this period so can anyone help with the make of the card and any other info? Thanks for your help. Pete

    WOW, 10 year old collecting T-206? That in itself is fascinating.

    Hi,
    I wouldn't get that card graded. Keep it in a nice spot and let him start collecting.

    For a lower grade card your T206 has great eye appeal.



    The trip job (bottom edge) IMO was done many years before slabs existed. Probably to match other cards it was stored with or to fit early plastic pages. Or it could have been the owner didnt like the slight diamond cut (top looks original and is a bit unsquare, bottom edge before trim would have matched).
