Nate This is actually my very first post. Regarding the infinite collectibility of the 1887 Old Judge N172 set, I've never been able to completely afford the caliber of HOFers that I would like to obtain.
I guess you would classify my method of collecting 19th Century as "type-collecting." However, in response to my two favorite Old Judge's, I would have to say my two King Kellys take the cake. One is a fielding pose where he is catching a pop-up, and the other is the very recognizable batting pose with his bat extended out to a 45 degree angle ( I think it's 45 degree angle, not very good at math!).
Well, anyways, those are my two favorite N172s, but most of my interests lie elsewhere. Aside from being an avid collector of 19th Century, I collect anything King Kelly-related in particular- gradually building up my King Kelly collection to respectable heights. Sorry that I don't have any pictures or anything visually stimulating like that. Good luck and happy collecting!
