Default 1887 Syracuse Trade Card Help

Posted By: Rhys

The card is roughly 7 1/2 inches by 5 1/4 inches so just a touch bigger than an N173. It is mounted to a paper stock closer to the feel of a cabinet card than a trade card. I had to remove it from being glued down for years to something more modern, but it came off pretty well. There were actually some newspaper clippings from one of the games Higgins pitched in that came with it as well and in one of the games, Higgins played against Newark who fielded Moses Walker and George Stovey. That would have been a game to see.

I do not know who the high bidder was that won the Grant photo, I have never seen that ebay handle before.
