Graded 50 VG/EX 4 by SGC. Hall of Famer, and scarce-subject from the 1911 T205 Gold Border insert set. Addie Joss stood among his era's dominant pitchers. Unfortunately, Joss's career was cut short, and he died of meningitis in April, 1911. The back of this card references his early death which makes it a bit of a tribute piece as well. A slight corner crease at the upper left keeps this from grading higher. The "Cycle"-backed reverse is clean. Very Good to Excellent condition.
