I got a case of 2002 Topps 206 when they first came out and pulled three T205 & T206 cards. From my understanding, they were all purchased by Topps from Kit Young. I think a total of around 4,000 were inserted into packs. I have seen a couple of Hall of Famers including Mathewson in these buyback holders.

Seriously doubt the legitimacy as a Topps206. Generally the cards I have seen are VG-VG/EX, I have "cracked" a lot of these and submitted them and never seen a real one even approaching this much damage.

+1 to what Scott posted.

The only thing that I can add is that I've never seen a Topps T206 Buyback with that level of back advertisement rarity.

I see no reason Topps would have done this. Would have been a more expensive card for them to obtain and most people who bought this product weren’t looking for / don’t appreciate difficult backs. And while I sure like John McGraw T206 rare backs, he is not as big of a name of HOFer as many others that could have been included.
But I sure could be wrong.

Agree. I am not sure a lot of that audience even knows what a rare back is. Maybe Larry is at it again but this time with some reverse psychology or something.

I can vouch for a Mathewson Portrait. When the set first released Marco of Kirkland Sports Cards pulled one out and had it in his case.

All the T206’s I’ve seen were legit albeit lower grade. I have seen a Cobb red and a Johnson white cap when these were just released on eBay. I kick myself for not paying the $800 for the Cobby.
