T206 Piedmont Ed Summers PSA 6 - Deadball Era Consistency with Strong Color and Crisp Detail
This T206 Ed Summers, graded PSA 6, showcases the craftsmanship and historical value that has made the T206 set a cornerstone of vintage collecting. Summers, a standout pitcher for the Detroit Tigers during the Deadball Era, was known for his exceptional control and sharp breaking stuff—attributes that helped him post back-to-back 19-win seasons in 1908 and 1909. His contribution to the powerhouse Tigers teams, which featured legends like Ty Cobb and Sam Crawford, made him a key figure in early 20th-century baseball.
This particular copy, issued with the Piedmont 150 back, displays striking color, clean white borders, and strong registration—all hallmarks of a well-preserved T206. The centering is well-balanced, and the surface offers excellent clarity, especially in the finely detailed portrait of Summers in his Detroit uniform. Graded PSA 6, it stands well above average for the issue and era, offering a clean and vibrant representation of one of the set’s underrated pitchers.
