-one of the classic "Big Three" from the set-

T206 white border error card with misspelled surname 

Provenance: Stokes Collection, Spartanburg, South Carolina

Note: Up until the 1980s this was, along with Honus Wagner and Eddie Plank, considered to be one of the top three cards needed to complete the T-206 set aka "the monster."

Since that time, the Doyle, New York Nat'l, variety has squeezed its way in to make the once "big three" now the "big four."

Magee with the misspelling still remains one of the last cards a collector typically needs to complete a set. 

The SGC population report shows just 88 graded and only 23 higher than
the present example.
