T205 Gold Border Jimmy Dygert PSA 4 - A Sharp Mid-Grade Example of Philadelphia’s Early Southpaw

The 1911 T205 Gold Border Jimmy Dygert offers a vibrant portrait of one of the Philadelphia Athletics' steady left-handed pitchers during the early years of the 20th century. Graded PSA 4, this example retains strong eye appeal despite the notorious fragility of the T205’s gold borders. Dygert, though often overshadowed by the A’s more prominent aces, was a key contributor to Connie Mack’s deep pitching staff during their dominant run in the 1900s.

This card presents a crisp lithographic rendering of Dygert, set against the classic ornate gold frame of the T205 series—one of the most artistic and beloved tobacco issues ever produced. The mid-grade condition here is noteworthy, as the corners show modest wear but remain well-formed for the grade, and the centering is solid. The vibrant coloration and clarity of the portrait make this a particularly desirable example for collectors focused on both aesthetics and historical importance.
