Default Old Judges

The Old Judge set is peppered with interesting tidbits and anomalies.

John Weyhing is pictured with the Philadelphia American Association team although his only major league action came with Cincinnati and Columbus. Harry Whitacre is also pictured with Philadelphia's AA entry although he apparently never played any major league baseball at all. The same is true for Charles Boyd despite being pictured with the Chicago Maroons of the Western Association.

And George Treadway may have been the first African American to have appeared on his own individual commercially available baseball card.
