This 1909-11 T206 Cy Seymour in the Batting pose has been graded SGC 4.5 VGEX+ and carries a Piedmont 150 back. Issued in cigarette packs by the American Tobacco Company, the T206 set is one of the most widely collected pre-war baseball issues and the centerpiece of many vintage collections. The SGC 4.5 VGEX+ grade reflects a well-preserved card with a clear image and solid eye appeal, a strong choice for collectors building the set in higher grade.
Cy Seymour began his career as a pitcher with the New York Giants before becoming one of the top hitters of the Deadball Era. He also played for the Baltimore Orioles, Cincinnati Reds, and Boston Braves, and his 1905 season with Cincinnati produced a National League batting title.
