A sharp mid-grade Southern Leaguer, this 1909–11 T206 trading card features Gordon Hickman of the Mobile Sea Gulls, offering collectors a compelling blend of scarcity, history, and eye appeal. Graded SGC 5.5 (EX+), this card stands out as a strong example from one of the hobby’s most iconic pre-war sets.

Issued by the American Tobacco Trust during the Deadball Era, the T206 set (1909–1911) is widely regarded as the foundation of vintage baseball card collecting. Southern League players like Hickman are especially desirable due to their more limited distribution compared to Major League subjects, making them key targets for advanced collectors.

Printed on classic tobacco-sized card stock, this original piece showcases the rich colors and detailed portrait artwork that define the T206 series. The SGC 5.5 grade reflects above-average preservation, with solid corners, clean surfaces, and strong overall presentation—an ideal balance between condition and affordability.

Cards featuring Southern Leaguers—particularly from teams like Mobile—continue to gain traction in the hobby, as collectors pursue tougher subsets and historically significant players from early professional baseball’s regional circuits.

Whether you’re building a T206 set, focusing on Southern League representation, or investing in high-quality pre-WWII material, this Gordon Hickman card is a standout addition with both collector appeal and long-term upside.
