Offered here is a 1909-11 T206 Harry Covaleski with a Piedmont back, encapsulated and graded SGC 3 VG 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.
Harry Covaleski pitched for the Philadelphia Phillies and earned the nickname "Giant Killer" for his late-season wins over the New York Giants in 1908. He was the older brother of pitcher Stan Coveleski, making this a fun card for family-themed collectors.
