- Lot Description
Perhaps the most coveted Cy Young card is his 1909-11 T206 Cleveland Portrait. The legendary 500-win hurler boasts three cards in the coveted tobacco series and is considered one of the toughest Hall of Famers to procure in even mid-grade form. Featured here an exceptionally high-grade Sweet Caporal (150 subjects, Factory No. 30) example with a phenomenal NM-MT 8 rating from PSA. In fact, only two have ever been graded higher in the PSA population report (one 8.5 and one 9). The green background remains incredibly bright, allowing the shadow on the left side of Young’s face to deliver a truly artistic appeal. Fantastic centering, clean white borders, nice corners, arrow-straight edges and immaculate resolution showcase the winningest pitcher ever to step on the mound in absolute precision. The Sweet Caporal manufacturing red print remains strikingly bold on the reverse.
In our 40+ year history as a company, we’ve never encountered such an exquisite T206 Cy. The card comes from a lifelong hobbyist with a keen eye for carboard beauty and scarcity, having seen its value grow in a decade from around $10K to well into six figures in today’s market. With so few comps to go by, the sky is the limit for this iconic grail.
