This 1909-1911 baseball card from the T206 series features Washington Senators pitcher, "Tannehill," and was produced by the American Tobacco Company. The card is part of a set of over 500 cards depicting various baseball players. The image, featuring a close-up of the pitcher in mid-throw, is printed on a small sheet of paper and is considered a classic example of early 20th-century baseball trading cards. The use of vibrant green and white colors, along with a realistic depiction of the player, make this card a collector's item and a valuable piece of American sports history.
