Native American Hall of Famer Chief Bender casts a stoic glance on this vintage cardboard rarity. Specifically, this 1903 E107 Type 1 blank-back example is encapsulated and Graded PR 1 by PSA. Offsetting the low-end technical grade, the scarce keepsake contrarily remains so valuable due to its lofty status as the lone specimen graded by the esteemed third party service. While the centering is nice, soft corners and reverse paper loss are consistent with the professional assessment.
