My Rarest T206 Back: A Lenox Black Bill Bergen Catching, Slabbed a PSA 2!

I've wanted a rare T206 back (or two or three or all) for some time. I never remember to search eBay with any gusto and they are more expensive, so I was comfortable with waiting until the right player and deal came along. That all changed when I threw a bid in on one not expecting to win it and of course did.


It worked out in the end as it wound up being a Dodger and an interesting guy to write about in Bill Bergen, the worst hitter in baseball history and the brother of a fellow MLB catcher who was also an axe murderer.


The Lenox Black reverse ranks in the top ten as far as rarity goes and while it was a lot I was still able to make rent and keep my fridge stocked, so a win all around when it was all said and done.
