Graded EX-MT+ 6.5 by PSA. This is the ONLY example graded at this level with just one higher. Outstanding high-grade example of Dummy Taylor (Buffalo) from the T206 White Border series featuring a desirable El Principe De Gales advertising reverse. El Principe De Gales is a scarce back, certainly not in the same league as Drum or Uzit, but very unusual and seen far less often than most other T206 advertising backs. Bright, crisp, and clean, with bold colors, flawless registration, four strong corners, and excellent centering. The important advertising reverse is clean and boldly printed. An ideal specimen that would be noteworthy for its high grade even with a more frequently encountered Piedmont or Sweet Caporal reverse, this card becomes all the more significant when one takes into account its unusual back. Reserve $200. Estimate (open).
