Sparkling hues include an imposing baby-blue background flanking the Johnson illustration. Bright white borders, fine edging, virtually square corners consistent with the grade, and an imposing bold red Sweet Caporal 350 Subjects ad back complete this iconic offering that was issued in 1910, the year Walter would tally 25 wins, post a 1.36 ERA, and lead the Junior Circuit with 313 strikeouts, the high point of his incomparable career!
