This 1909-11 T206 Rube Marquard Hands at Thighs with its Piedmont back has been graded SGC 1 PR. Known among collectors as The Monster, the T206 tobacco set features more than 500 cards and remains the most celebrated pre-war baseball issue. This survivor from the dead-ball era is a solid addition for set builders and anyone collecting original early twentieth-century baseball cardboard. The SGC holder protects the card and makes it simple to display.
Rube Marquard starred for the New York Giants, winning a record 19 consecutive games in 1912, and later pitched for the Brooklyn Robins, Cincinnati Reds, and Boston Braves. He is a National Baseball Hall of Fame (HOF) inductee (1971).
