An SGC graded EX 5 - 1909-1911 T206 White Border card of George "Hooks" Wiltse of the New Giants. This is the "Pitching" pose variation of Wiltse and features the Piedmont 350-460 Series (Factory No. 25) ad on the back.
This example has no creasing, bold printing, nice registration, excellent color and bright borders. The corners are consistent with those found on most EX-MT+/NM examples. The printing on the front is shifted to the left, but the card still displays well. There are two light diagonal indentations (each approx. 1/4" long) on the left portion of the top border that can be seen when the card is tilted to the light, but they do not go through to the back. On the back of the card, there are also two light diagonal indentations (each approx.1/4" long) on the left border to the left of the word "CIGARETTE". They also can be seen when the card is tilted to the light, but do not show on the front. Also on the back, there is a small ding on the right edge to the right of the letter "t" in "Piedmont", but it does not show on the front. The printing on the back is shifted close to the right edge but all of the printing is still intact. Otherwise, the back is bright and clean with bold printing. Even with the flaws, this is still a nice looking card for the grade.
