1909-11 T206 WHITE BORDER #NN CY YOUNG (PORTRAIT) HOF PSA 1.5 FR Centered Beauty

Description: Untitled 1 1909-1911 T206 White Border #NN Cy Young (Cleveland, Portrait) Hall of Famer, Piedmont 150 Factory No. 25 Back, PSA 1.5 FR Fresh to the Market from The Factory 25 Collection! Due to the intense coverage of The Lucky 7 Find, a North Carolina family realized the collection of 570 tobacco cards that had been passed down from generation to generation not only had significant value but also included an example of the rarely seen Ty Cobb card with the “King of the Smoking Tobacco World” advertisement on the back. The family knew they had what appeared to be an authentic collection of tobacco cards more than 110 years old, and properly identified 545 of the cards from the T206 set with 370 different, more than 70% of the complete set. All but one of the T206s in the collection featured one of only two different tobacco brands on the back, “Piedmont” or “Old Mill.” The history of the collection is fascinating. Originally assembled by a former employee of the American Tobacco Company, presumably someone who worked at Factory No. 25 in Virginia, the cards were given to a North Carolina family as a gift in the first half of the 20th century. The collection had been passed down from generation to generation until it was hidden away for years in a cigar box wrapped in aluminum foil. Nearly discarded, the tobacco card collection was recently consigned to MINT State with an estimated value of $300,000 to $400,000. All the cards in what is being dubbed The Factory 25 Collection are low grade since they were treated as children’s toys the past 70 or 80 years. Fortunately, many of the cards still retain white borders, boast bright and colorful images, and are well centered. This listing is for Cleveland Naps pitcher and Hall of Famer, Denton True “Cy” Young (Potrait). Major League Baseball’s all-time winningest pitcher with 511 career victories, Young is also the all-time leader in innings pitched (7,356), games started (815), and complete games (749). One year after his death in 1955, the Cy Young Award was created to honor the previous season’s best pitcher. Graded PSA PR 1.5 due to general wear and staining, the card is centered with a stunning image. One of the highlights of The Factory 25 Collection.
