T206 Polar Bear – Harry McIntyre (Brooklyn & Chicago) PSA 5 - A Tough-Back Mid-Grade Featuring a Two-Team Journeyman
Harry McIntyre’s career in the early 1900s was marked by versatility and movement—spending time with both Brooklyn and Chicago, he was known for his grit on the mound and adaptability during a time when baseball was still refining its modern form. Though never a dominant star, McIntyre's presence in the T206 series gives collectors a valuable link to the game's transitional era and its forgotten workhorses.
This PSA 5 example boasts strong overall eye appeal with clean surfaces, solid color, and a well-centered portrait that captures McIntyre mid-pitch in his Brooklyn uniform. What truly sets this card apart is its Polar Bear back, one of the more condition-sensitive and popular backs among T206 collectors. Cards with this tobacco brand are often plagued with stains and wear due to their original packaging, yet this example retains remarkable visual clarity and strong registration.
