Default Western Association Old Judges

In another thread, the scarcity of 1888 and 1889 Western Association Old Judges was discussed. The 1888 cards are quite scarce and the 1889 cards are scarcer than both National League and American Association cards, the ones that make up a majority of the 1889 issue. I thought it would be fun to ask people to post their Western Association Old Judges, if they have any. I am out now, but will post some later too. Have at it guys!

Default Denvers

I like this Klusman because it is a triple-variation card:

Version A: "Milwaukee" caption; "MILWAUKEE" on shirt
Version B: Handwritten "Denver" caption; "MILWAUKEE" partially blocked-out on shirt but still visible
Version C (the one you're looking at): Typeset "Denvers" caption; "MILWAUKEE" fully blocked-out on shirt

I can't think of too many other triple-variation cards!

Hoffman is probably the most difficult Denver subject (although the most difficult pose is surely the recently confirmed Dave Rowe portrait).

Great cards, Jay and Scott!

Here are my eight Western Association cards, the three 1888s in the top row and the five 1889s on the bottom row. They're from seven different teams, with two St. Pauls. They're all raw, so I just slapped them on the scanner bed. (Well, I didn't literally slap them.)

Great cards David! We should see if we can get a full run of the WA teams from both years. We are half way there in 1888, which will be the tough one.

Oh man, Jay. Where did you get the Rowe Denver portrait? I thought the only copy was locked-up in the Denver Public Library collection!

Wait a minute -- may be confusing poses . . .

Yep here's the one I was thinking of:

Great cards everyone.

Regarding 1888 (Fa & Fb) and 1889 (Fc) Western Association cards, I have another data point from a fellow Iowan who collects Iowa OJs (among other items). In studying pictures of his display case, it appears he has better than 20 Des Moines cards with only a single example, Kennedy, being an Fb, all others being issued in 1889 (Fc). He then also has a nice run of Sioux City which were only issued in 1889 (Fc). The Des Moines collection matches John's experience with Milwaukee (i.e. a dedicated effort to collect their respective Western Association teams which exists as primarily as Fb and Fc resulted in a nearly 100% Fc collection due to Fb rarity).

When I went after the Fb Western Association run (a single example from each team), it was relatively easy to obtain St. Louis Whites, Chicago Maroons, Kansas City Blues, and Des Moines Prohibitionists. The remainder, however, (Omaha Omahogs, Milwaukee Brewers, and St. Paul Apostles) were difficult. I leave out Minneapolis Millers since that team is almost exclusively Fa and not too difficult to obtain a single copy. On a side note, even the easier teams I listed have extremely difficult players/poses.

Joe makes a good point about rarities in the 1888 cards. If you look at the Significant Rarities list in the Old Judge book (page 92), 15 of the first 17 are players who have cards solely from the 1888 WA (Veach has another card--a California League one). Additionally, if we redid the list, Taylor Shafer would no doubt be added.

Jay already posted this player/pose, but I thought I would add to the "overall population" of Barnes

Pretty sure I bought this one from Jay as well...

Here are a few more 1888 WA cards, and also the President and Vice President 57 years ago. I think we just need Omaha and St Paul to finish the 1888s.

Let me add another to cover St Paul in 1888. This is an interesting card in that it is an error that we didn't pick up until after the book was published. The card is pictured in the book as Varney Anderson pose 7-2. That alone would make it a rare card. However, as was later discovered, the card does not picture Varney Anderson but Peek-A-Boo Veach. As such, the card is now listed as Veach pose 472.5-6, making it an error card of another rare player.

Default My contribution

Here are my three contributions. My Klusman card says "Denvers" on the photo while the picture in the Old Judge book shows the word "Denver" overwritten on the card. Does this make my card an error or variation or is this normal with Old Judge cards?

Also, I have a card of Ned Williamson. In the Old Judge book, the pose I have shows his name at the bottom of the card as "E Williamson" whereas the card I own shows it as "C W Williamson" again, is this an error or variation that is new or is this to be expected?

Finally, I bought all of my Old Judge cards at an estate auction about 20 years ago. The eight cards I bought are these three, the Williamson (Chicagos), Faatz (Cleveland), Van Haltren (Chicagos) plus an Anson, Ewing and a Rusie.

It seems odd that most of my cards are of players from the Midwest and West and not from the East Coast. Since these cards were purchased in Indiana, could it mean that if these stayed local all of these years, these were intentionally distributed in the Midwest?

Hi David! Klusman started the 1889 season with Milwaukee and then moved to Denver. Goodwin & Company was good at updating player moves on their cards. In the case of Klusman, they did a quick update by removing the Milwaukee team designation from the nameplate of the card and writing in Denver. It was, excuse my French, a half ass job. "Milwaukee" remained on Klusman's uniform and you can still see "Milwaukee" written in for N173 identification on the photo. Some time later they corrected this with a typeset team designation. At the same time they obscured the team name from his jersey and on the lower portion of the negative. I have shown the progression below.
The wrong name for Williamson is not unusual. It happened a lot, but this should not be surprising. There were thousands of different cards being produced and the people handling the production may not have known anything about the players.
I have no idea about the distribution, although what you suggest is certainly possible.

oldjudge,

Thanks for the explanation and an example of what you were talking about.

I know with this set that when you add in all of the variations there are thousands of different cards and that what I own probably falls within those known variations. However, I also knew that there might be a small chance that I own something that nobody has seen before.

David

Love the Anderson/Veach card, Jay. I don't think too many people truly grasp how great that card is. Wish I could add some scans, but I have no WA cards on my laptop and I'm not home right now to scan them

I thought I'd add the last piece of the 1888 puzzle, an Omaha card. This card was listed in the book, as one might expect, as a pose of Joe Miller. However, after publication, it was noticed via comparison to Tug Wilson's glass plate negative (also pictured in book) that this card pictures Tug Wilson. This led to an article by Joe and myself in Old Cardboard and the reclassification of three Joe Miller poses to being Tug Wilson cards. Thus, the number of subjects in the Old Judge sets now stands at 522. Note: For those who still believe that the name on the card rather than the image determines whose card it is, the number of subjects in the set is still 522. Wilson would not count but Struck would.

We still need an 1889 Minneapolis card to finish out the Western Association Old Judge run. I'm sure someone can fill this in. If we can do this it is really a pretty neat group accomplishment.

Great card Kevin--fantastic contrast and interesting large left border. I also am a big fan of those bat at side poses. Also nice to see someone else's fingers in the image.

There are some amazing Old Judge groups and singles in the current REA. One of my favorites is the Old Judge card of baseball pioneer Bobby Mathews (I have no vested interest in this card).

Sorry for coming late to the party, but there have been a lot of distractions lately.

I'll try to post what I have periodically in some logical groupings as I unearth them from storage.

Those are beauties Kevin, especially that scarcer Orator Shafer card.
