T206 Joe Doyle (N.Y. Nat'l)

Joe Doyle was neither a Hall of Famer nor a significant ball player, but his T206 Joe Doyle (N.Y. Nat'l) variation is untouchable to all T206 collectors. Same as most of other T206 variations, this late 1980's discovered variation that no one has sufficiently explained. There are four Doyle cards in the T206 set, but only one depict Joe Doyle which is in hands over head pose. 99.999% of T206 Joe Doyle card only has "Doyle, N. Y." on the front but the super ultra scarce variation has the "Nat'l" league designation as well. This variation makes it perhaps the rarest card in the hobby with fewer than a half-dozen known. There was a new example discovered in 1999 and it was authenticated by PSA and labelled as trimmed. That particular example has Piedmont with Series 350 Factory 25 advertisement.

SIDE NOTE:
T206 Joe Doyle (N.Y. Nat'l) can only be found with Piedmont 350 Series Factory 25 advertisement. There are less than half dozen examples known to exist.
