About The Set: The 1909-11 T206 White Border tobacco 523 card set is arguably the most sought after and collected baseball card set produced prior to 1950. The white border tobacco cards were produced by multiple tobacco brands, and used as a marketing scheme to sell cigarettes and tobacco products. Each individual tobacco company printed their name/insignia on the back of the card. The most common backs are from Piedmont and Sweet Caporal. Other backs were less common and command a higher value, depending on the rarity of the card/brands printed on the back. Back scarcity rankings from T206resource . org (from Wikipedia): T206 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The T206 Honus Wagner The tobacco card set known as T206 was issued from 1909 to 1911 in cigarette and loose tobacco packs through 16 different brands owned by the American Tobacco Company. It is a landmark set in the history of baseball card collecting, due to its size, rarity, and the quality of its color lithographs. History The name T206 refers to the catalog designation assigned by Jefferson Burdick in his book The American Card Catalog. It is also known informally as the “White Border” set due to the distinctive white borders surrounding the lithographs on each card. The T206 set consists of 523 cards. Over 100 of the cards picture minor league players. There are also multiple cards for the same player in different poses, different uniforms, or even with different teams after being traded (since the set was issued over a period of three years). The cards measure 1-7/16″ x 2-5/8″ which is considered by many collectors to be the standard tobacco card size. The T206 set is the most popular and widely collected set of the tobacco/pre-war era. The historical significance of the set as well as the large number of variations give it enormous appeal to collectors. In addition, the set features many Baseball Hall of Fame members including Ty Cobb (who is pictured on 4 different cards), Walter Johnson, Cy Young, and Christy Mathewson. The value of the cards has led to a great deal of counterfeiting over the years. The T206 Collection: The Players & Their Stories by Tom and Ellen Zappala and Peter Randall Publishers highlights the personal and professional lives of the players in the collection and discusses the values of the cards as well as the mystique behind the collection. The Honus Wagner card Main article: T206 Honus Wagner The T206 Wagner is the most valuable baseball card in existence, and even damaged examples are valued at $100,000 or more.[1] This is in part because of Wagner’s place among baseball’s immortals, as he was an original Hall of Fame inductee. More importantly, it is one of the scarcest cards from the most prominent of all vintage card sets. Rarity It is estimated that between 50 and 200 Wagner cards were ever distributed to the public,[2][3] and fewer still have survived to the present day. Several theories exist as to why the card is so rare. One theory is that the printing plate used to create Wagner’s card broke early on in the production process, but Wagner was a major star at the time and new plates would almost certainly have been created. Another theory is that there was a copyright dispute between the American Tobacco Company and the artist who created the Wagner lithograph.[4] The most commonly accepted theory is that the card was pulled from production because Wagner himself objected to the production of the card, but his motivation is unclear. Reports at the time indicated Wagner did not wish to associate himself with cigarettes,[5] possibly because he did not want to encourage children to smoke.[1] However, some collectors and historians have pointed out that Wagner, a user of chewing tobacco, allowed his image to appear on cigar boxes and other tobacco-related products prior to 1909 and may have objected to the card simply because he wanted more financial compensation for the use of his image.[1][6] Value A high-quality example of the Wagner card was sold at auction on eBay in 2000 for US$1.265 million.[2] In February 2007, the same card was sold for a record US$2.35 million.[7] In September 2007, the Wagner card changed hands again when SCP Auctions of Mission Viejo, California, which had bought minority ownership, brokered a new sale—this time for US$2.8 million, to a private collector. On August 1, 2008, noted memorabilia dealer John Rogers of North Little Rock, Arkansas paid US$1.6 million for a PSA 5 Wagner. Rogers stated he “was prepared to go much higher and is pleased with his investment.” He added “the citizens of Arkansas deserve to see this treasure and I intend to make the card available to the public.”[8] In November 2010, a group of nuns from Baltimore sold a Wagner card for $262,000 in auction to Doug Walton, a sporting card store owner.[9] Brands that produced T206 cards Piedmont back of a T206. T206 cards were issued with 16 different backs, representing the 16 different brands of cigarettes/tobacco with which the cards were issued. Due to the same card having different backs, there are actually far more than 523 “different” T206 cards. The actual number of front/back combination is not fully known as collectors still discover new combinations from time to time. The 16 backs are: American Beauty – more thinly cut than other brands due to the narrower size of the cigarette packs Broadleaf Carolina Brights Cycle Drum El Principe De Gales Hindu – Found in both brown ink and red ink (rare) Lenox – Found in both brown ink and black ink Old Mill Piedmont Polar Bear – Only brand that is not cigarettes; Polar Bear was loose tobacco, also known as scrap tobacco Sovereign Sweet Caporal Tolstoi Ty Cobb Uzit Mordecai Brown From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mordecai Brown Pitcher Born: October 19, 1876 Nyesville, Indiana Died: February 14, 1948 (aged 71) Terre Haute, Indiana Batted: Switch Threw: Right MLB debut April 19, 1903 for the St. Louis Cardinals Last MLB appearance September 4, 1916 for the Chicago Cubs Career statistics Win–loss record 239–130 Earned run average 2.06 Strikeouts 1,375 Shutouts 55 Teams As Player St. Louis Cardinals (1903) Chicago Cubs (1904–1912) Cincinnati Reds (1913) St. Louis Terriers (1914) Brooklyn Tip-Tops (1914) Chicago Whales (1915) Chicago Cubs (1916) As Manager St. Louis Terriers (1914) Career highlights and awards World Series Champion: 1907, 1908 National League pennant: 1906, 1910 20+ Wins in a season (1906–1911) Led league in Saves (1908–1911) 55 Career Shutouts Member of the National Baseball Hall of Fame Induction 1949 Election Method Veteran’s Committee Mordecai Peter Centennial Brown (October 19, 1876 – February 14, 1948), nicknamed “Three Finger” or “Miner”, was an American Major League Baseball pitcher at the turn of the 20th century. Due to a farm-machinery accident in his youth, Brown lost parts of two fingers on his right hand[1] and eventually acquired his nickname as a result. Overcoming this handicap and turning it to his advantage, he became one of the elite pitchers of his era. He was known primarily for his exceptional curveball, which broke radically before reaching the plate. Brown was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1949. Early life Brown was born in Nyesville, Indiana. He was also known as “Miner”, having worked in western Indiana coal mines for a while before beginning his professional baseball career. Nicknames like “Miner” (or misspelled as “Minor”[2]) and “Three Finger” (or sometimes “Three-Fingered”) were headline writers’ inventions. To fans and friends he was probably best known as “Brownie”. To his relatives and close friends, he was also known as “Mort”. His three-part given name came from the names of his uncle, his father, and the United States Centennial year of his birth, respectively. Brown’s pitching (or “twirling”) hand According to his biography, he suffered two separate injuries to his right hand. The first and most famous trauma came when he was feeding material into the farm’s feed chopper. He slipped and his hand was mangled by the knives, severing much of his index finger and damaging the others. A doctor repaired the rest of his hand as best he could. While it was still healing, the injury was further aggravated by a fall he took, which broke several finger bones. They were not re-set properly, especially the middle finger (see photo). He learned to pitch, as many children did, by aiming rocks at knot-holes on the barn wall and other wooden surfaces. Over time, with constant practice, he developed great control. As a “bonus”, the manner in which he had to grip the ball (see photo) resulted in an unusual amount of spin. This allowed him to throw an effective curve ball, and a deceptive fast ball and change-up. The extra topspin made it difficult for batters to connect solidly. In short, he “threw ground balls” and was exceptionally effective. Career Brown with the Chicago Cubs in 1909 (left) and 1916 (right) Brown in 1911 Brown was a third baseman in semipro baseball in 1898 when his team’s pitcher failed to appear for a game and was put in to pitch. Players in the league quickly noticed the spin and movement created by Brown’s unusual grip. Fred Massey, Brown’s great-nephew, said, “It didn’t only curve, it curved and dropped at the same time,” Massey said. “It made it extremely hard to hit and if you did hit it, you hit it into the ground [because you] couldn’t get under it.”[3] After a spectacular minor league career commencing in Terre Haute of the Three-I League in 1901, Brown came to the majors rather late, at age 26, in 1903, and lasted until 1916 when he was close to 40. Brown’s most productive period was when he played for the Chicago Cubs from 1904 until 1912. During this stretch, he won 20 or more games six times and was part of two World Series championships. New York Giants manager John McGraw regarded his own Christy Mathewson and Brown as the two best pitchers in the National League. In fact, Brown often defeated Mathewson in competition, most significantly in the final regular season game of the 1908 season. Brown had a slim career 13–11 edge on Mathewson, with one no- decision in their 25 pitching matchups. [4] Brown’s most important single game effort was the pennant-deciding contest between the Cubs and the New York Giants on October 8, 1908, at New York. With Mathewson starting for the Giants, Cubs starter Jack Pfiester got off to a weak start and was quickly relieved by Brown, who held the Giants in check the rest of the way as the Cubs prevailed 4–2, to win the pennant. The Cubs then went on to win their second consecutive World Series championship, their last to date. In late 1909, Brown was on a team that played some games in Cuba. He planned to spend the winter there, but returned home when he caught a mysterious sickness.[5] After the 1912 season, Brown consulted a physician for a minor illness. Examining Brown’s knee, the physician advised Brown to retire from baseball because he risked losing the use of his leg. [6] After the 1913 season, Brown jumped to the Federal League, signing his contract on the same day as Joe Tinker. While Tinker went to the Chicago Whales, Brown was the player-manager for the St. Louis Terriers in 1914.[7] Brown was dismissed as manager, finished the season with the Brooklyn Tip-Tops, and was rumored to retire again in October 1914.[8] He stayed in the league and played for the Chicago Whales in 1915. He returned to the Cubs for his final season in 1916.[3] Brown and Mathewson wrapped their respective careers by squaring off on September 4, 1916. The game was billed as the final meeting between the two old baseball warriors. The high-scoring game was a win for Mathewson’s Reds over Brown’s Cubs. Brown finished his major league career with a 239–130 record, 1375 strikeouts, and a 2.06 ERA, the third best ERA in Major League Baseball history amongst players inducted into the Hall of Fame, after Ed Walsh and Addie Joss. His 2.06 ERA is the best in MLB history for any pitcher with more than 200 wins. Brown was a switch-hitter, which was and is unusual for a pitcher. He took some pride in his hitting, and had a fair batting average for a pitcher, consistently near .200 in the major leagues. Later life and legacy Following his retirement from the majors, he returned to his home in Terre Haute, where he continued to pitch in the minor leagues and in exhibition games for more than a decade, as well as coaching and managing. According to his biography, in an exhibition game against the famous House of David touring team in 1928, at the age of 51, he pitched three innings as a favor to the local team, and struck out all nine batters he faced. From 1920 to 1945, Brown ran a filling station in Terre Haute that also served as a town gathering place and an unofficial museum. He was also a frequent guest at Old-Timers’ games in Chicago. In his later years, Brown was plagued by diabetes and then by the effects of a stroke. He died in 1948 of diabetic complications.[9] He was posthumously elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame the following year. In the episode Homer at the Bat, the popular TV show The Simpsons made a reference to Mordecai. The character Mr. Burns lists three ringers he wants for his company’s baseball team, but they are Honus Wagner, Cap Anson, and “Mordecai ‘Three Fingers’ Brown”. His assistant has to point out that they are not only retired, but long-dead…Anson having played in the late 19th century. In 1999, he was named as a finalist to the Major League Baseball All-Century Team. Between Brown and Antonio Alfonseca, the Cubs have featured both a “three-fingered” pitcher and a six-fingered pitcher on their all-time roster (Brown technically had four, including the thumb).
