Why This Card Matters

Eckersley is one of only two pitchers in MLB history with both a 20-win season and a 50-save season, the fact printed on this card's back, and he was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2004. The 2025 Topps T205 set revives the 1911 gold-border tobacco design at the original size of roughly 1 7/16 by 2 5/8 inches, with facsimile signatures and no card numbers on the base cards. This copy has the plain Topps back, which is the base version. The named tobacco backs - Piedmont, Sweet Caporal, Polar Bear and the rest - are the parallels.
