Item Description
1-7/16x2-5/8". 1909-11 T206 Baseball is called "The Monster" for good reason. It's one of the most widely-collected sets of any era. T206 also contains the single most famous card in the hobby, one recognized even by non-collectors. While most cards are easily obtained, the release has some very scarce options, with 16 back varieties in all, that are led by the nearly-mythical Honus Wagner card.

Frank Roland "Rube" Dessau was a pitcher in Major League Baseball. He pitched in two games for the 1907 Boston Doves and in nineteen games for the 1910 Brooklyn Superbas. He was also a manager in minor league baseball for the York White Roses, Decatur Commodores, and Springfield Senators over 11 seasons.
