Great cards of some tough players. Here are some of the easier Detroits with decent images.

Refusing to let this thread die! Here are two Pittsburgh players you don't see too often and two cards of Monk Cline, who I just decided the other day to try to get all five poses of since I had two nice ones already

One more post for today. Back when the law firm of Miller, Masson and Gonsowski asked me to help out with the Old Judge book, among other things, I took on the task of researching the bios. One particular player, who wasn't in my group, remained a mystery until near the end. So I spent a week trying to figure out if there really was a Whiteacre, or was it Pat Whitaker spelled wrong, like it had been suggested for many years. The name "Whiteacre was listed on the Reserve List for the Philadelphia Athletics over the Winter of 1887-88, but no player with that name ever played minor/major league ball. After searching daily for hours a day, I finally stumbled upon an obscure book about the town of Kennett Square, Pa with an 1886 team photo of the town's amateur team and in the corner was a match, a man named Harry Whiteacre! This card may only be a psa1, but it is one of my favorite cards because 120 years later, he finally had a name and wasn't misidentified as someone else from the set anymore.

Chris, great Barnie.
John, thats interesting... Whiteacre has to be one of the sneaky tough, right? About Monk Cline, I had a similar thing happen to me when I realized I had three Black Jack Burdock poses, I was looking for the last two... Until one day I had a lapse of judgement and sold my portrait card of him. I miss that card, oh well, live and learn. At least I know where it is.
