1889 International Association Old Judges

Where are all the OJ collectors?? There has to be more than the usual suspects that can contribute. Kudos to Kevin who covered all seven teams with his one post. I believe John can do the same and Jay could beat us all. I wouldn't consider the IA cards to be easy, but they are far from scarce. While I have at least one example of all the Detroit players, I do still need some poses (5 Detroit subjects responsible for 13 poses in total).

Looks like Alvord and Sage tried to copy each other's fielding pose. I really like the team change cards in which Goodwin & Co. modified the jersey to represent the new team (see Blair, Pettee, Rooks, and others).

I'd love to see some posts from others. Post them if you have them.

How about closet OJ fans? I don't actively collect them, but I could certainly find room in my collection for more, if the ones I wanted ever showed up.

The only OJ I have is Serad with Toronto. I'd love to add the Toronto variations of McGuire and Hoover, but have to think that for me, that's as likely as Toronto variations of McGlone, McLaughlin and Titcomb all showing up!

In light of that, your theory is quite interesting. I'd love to see some more Toronto OJs added to the checklist. Cool thread, and great scans everyone (especially like all the Londons and Hamiltons posted).

Regards,

Richard.
