I'm not sure if I'm truly the second owner, but I bought this card from LOTG last spring. It comes from a family collection dating back to the turn of the century. It has a back stamp of William Born while the others sold in that auction state Ernest Born. How the 2 were related, I'm not too sure, but I'd guess that I may be the 2nd/3rd owner at best or if the Born's got the card trading with their friends back in the late 1800s or early 1900s, I may be actually far down along the chain. Either way, I'm glad to own the card and am able to date the card at least to the early 1900s and possibly to when it was pack fresh.
