This 1909-11 T206 Cy Seymour in the Batting pose has been graded SGC 3 VG and carries a Piedmont 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 3 VG grade reflects moderate corner and surface wear, while the card retains solid eye appeal for a tobacco issue more than a century old.
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.
