T206 White Border Billy Sullivan Piedmont 150/25, SGC 2.5 Good+, 1906 WS Champ

Description: Up for your consideration is a 1909 T206 White Border card featuring Chicago White Sox catcher Billy Sullivan. This Piedmont 150 issue has been graded a 2.5 GD+ by SGC. This one pops due to fantastic color and registration. About Sullivan: - Billy caught for the White Sox for 13 seasons, including in 1906 when the team won the World Series over the favored crosstown Cubs. - Sullivan was notoriously poor with the bat but made up for this with excellent defensive skills - he was rated among the best defensive catchers of his era - even today Billy ranks 11th all-time for stealers thrown out, successfully gunning runners at an impressive 50% clip.- His son, Billy Jr., also caught in the majors. Junior was much better in the batter's box but didn't have his father's defensive acumen. The pair became the first father-son duo to both play in a World Series when the younger played in the 1940 Fall Classic. The pictured card is the item you will receive. Please use the attached photos to evaluate the card's condition. I'll be happy to answer questions or provide additional pictures upon request.
