Actually, Jeff, I cheated on this one. I kept the original scan from the seller that I bought the premium from as the piece is much too large to fit on my scanner.

As for the proof.....I think you will be in line with a few others :).

I have been away on vacation and I was very pleased today to see all the great Mathewson cards posted on this thread. Some really great stuff....thanks.
Here is a tuff T206 front / back combo of Matty. Check it out in the pop-reports. I do not think there are too many listed. Matty's SOVEREIGN 350 is easier
to find (I did see one posted here).

June 13 was a good date in Matty's career...in 1905 he pitched his 2nd no-hitter on this date, and in 1913 he got his 300th win on this date.
