Offered here is among the finest golf cards in existence - the highest ever graded example of Young Tom Morris' "rookie card" from the legendary 1900 Cope's Golfers tobacco card set. 

The 1900 Cope's Golfers set is the preeminent early golf card set. The rare tobacco card set is often compared to baseball card collecting's T206 set from 1909-1911, which famously features the iconic Honus Wagner card. But only the most advanced collectors realize that the 1900 Cope's Golfers set is exceedingly more rare than the T206 set. In total, PSA has graded over 250,000 T206 cards, but only 2,075 total cards in the 1900 Cope's Golfers set - less than 1% the number of T206 cards. The mysteriously short printed Honus Wagner baseball card has 36 examples graded by PSA, each of which is worth over $1 million. The most sought after Cope's Golfers cards are those of Young & Old Tom Morris, which have seen a similar 64 and 58 copies graded, respectively, but are currently worth a tiny fraction of its baseball counterpart. 

Offered here is the highest grade 1900 Cope Bros. & Co. Cope's Golfers tobacco card of Young Tom Morris. This Rookie Card of Young Tom Morris is graded PSA 8.5 Near Mint+. PSA Pop 1, none higher.
