The pinhole is probably distracting to many folks, but I consider myself lucky to have found this card in otherwise great condition and made affordable due to that pinhole. I imagine some kid tacking it to his wall in 1911, or maybe a tobacco store made a grand baseball display with a bunch of T3s - either way it gives me great joy to contemplate its journey to my collection!

Congrats on a nice looking Joss! I share your joy in finding Turkey Reds with low technical grades but great eye appeal. Enjoy it!
