Graded VG 3 by SGC. Outstanding example of New York Giants Hall of Fame catcher Roger Bresnahan from the rare and highly regarded PC796 sepia postcard set issued in 1910. The manufacturer of this series is unknown. The PC796 set is one of the most striking sets of the era. The offered card is bright and clean with centering toward the top, moderate creases, and even corner wear. The card has never been mailed and has no writing on its traditional postcard reverse. This is an exceptionally rare card of one of the era's legendary stars. Dimensions: 3.5 x 5.5 inches. Opening Bid $200.
