Thanks Leon. It is cool to finally knock that card off the list and it served as a reminder to not put rare Old Judge cards on my wantlist, just get whichever ones you can when they come up. You don't know how many times I've seen Alcott come up for sale over that time, just to find out it wasn't the Mansfield version. It's also in much nicer shape than what I thought I was going to end up with, figuring I'd just overspend for the next one I saw no matter what the condition.

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.
