FS - 1887 Detroit Baseball Club Cabinet
 

Just picked up this ultra rare cabinet card. Very rough but still unbelievably awesome!

Tomlinson Cabinet. Bottom says:

Detroit Base Ball Club 1887
Champions of the League

featuring cameo portraits of fourteen team members, including Hall of Famers Dan Brouthers, Sam Thompson, and Ed Hanlon. Each player is identified in small type beneath his portrait.

Taking offers. (will post front/back pics on Monday)

Can forward images to any email.

Would like to see what you have.

Thanks,

Lou: Sounds like the same type of item which just sold on LOTG auction. It was graded SGC 40 and sold for $ 10,455. Let's see the photos.

"Champions of the League" Tomlinson cabinet fairly common but more than enough demand to keep them valuable. Bryan Dec also has an example on eBay for $6250.

I have a couple authentic copies and a fake. I know a fake was also received by an auction house awhile back. In both cases, the fakes were not particularly well done.

(EDIT/UPDATE) Saw image of front and back, looks real to me. It is among the roughest example in the hobby, but a nice cabinet.
