This 1909-11 T206 Buck Herzog with the Boston team designation has been graded SGC 1 PR and carries a Piedmont 350-460 back. The T206 "White Border" set, distributed by the American Tobacco Company, is one of the most celebrated pre-war issues in the hobby. The SGC 1 PR grade reflects heavy handling, yet the card remains a genuine, authenticated piece of pre-war baseball history and a practical way to fill a spot in the set.
Buck Herzog was a versatile infielder who played for the New York Giants, Boston, the Cincinnati Reds, and the Chicago Cubs. He was a key part of several Giants pennant winners under John McGraw and later served as player-manager in Cincinnati.
