Daniel BrettaAt the library's used book sale. It's called "American Premium Guide To Baseball Cards" by Ron Erbe. It has a fantastic section devoted to the Old Judge N172 set with a checklist for the numbered cards, an alphabetical checklist for the "long unnumbered set", a checklist by team, and a checklist for all of the subsets (Spotted Tie, Browns Champs, New York NL Script, Pacific Coast League, Two Player Cards, and Hall of Famers). I'm sure there have been numerous cards discovered since this book came out in 1982, but this is a great book that I had never seen before today.
As a side note I must have picked up about 100 baseball books today. This is by far the best selection they have put out in years, and I even picked up a Harmon Killebrew book that must have been donated and never put on the shelves because it doesn't have any library markings at all - and it's been autographed on the inside cover!!! I also picked up a cool book called "The Great American Baseball Scrapbook" that shows tons of cards and memorabilia.
