T206 Piedmont 350 Jimmy Burke PSA 2 - A Century-Old Portrait of a Respected Deadball Era Strategist

Jimmy Burke may be better known for his time in a manager’s cap than for his exploits on the diamond, but his playing career still left its mark during the early years of professional baseball. A journeyman infielder, Burke played for teams like the Cleveland Spiders, St. Louis Cardinals, and Pittsburgh Pirates during the rough-and-tumble days of the Deadball Era. Later, he became a trusted coach and manager, contributing to the game’s growth in its foundational years.

This T206 Jimmy Burke card, housed in a Piedmont 350 Series back and graded PSA 2, offers collectors a slice of baseball's earliest artistry. The card carries the timeworn patina you'd expect from an issue that has survived more than a century, with soft corners and mild surface wear. Despite the modest grade, the visual clarity and historical charm remain intact, making this a respectable lower-grade example for T206 set builders or those drawn to the managerial lineage of early baseball.
