Pandas: BUG?: can't print the head of a sparse dataframe in 0.21.0

[lesshaste]

import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([['a','b'],['c','d']])
S = pd.get_dummies(df, columns=[1], sparse=True)
print(S.head(1))

Problem description

You get:

TypeError: values must be SparseArray

However in pandas 0.20.3 it works OK

Expected Output

In [4]: print(S.head(1))

   0  1_b  1_d
0  a    1    0

Output of pd.show_versions()

pd.show_versions()

xref to #16874 which is the underlying issue, though maybe not the cause of this particular.
