Offered here is a 1909-11 T206 Ed Killian Portrait with a Piedmont back, encapsulated and graded SGC 1 PR by SGC. Distributed in cigarette packs between 1909 and 1911, T206 is widely regarded as the cornerstone of vintage baseball card collecting, and every example tells a story of more than a century of survival. Its original artwork and honest vintage character make it a welcome addition to any early baseball collection.
Ed Killian was a left-handed pitcher for the Detroit Tigers, contributing to the club's American League pennant teams of 1907 and 1908. He is a respected arm from the deadball era and a strong pickup for Tigers team collectors.
