The latest addition to my steadily growing T202 collection.
The Philadelphia Athletics infield, featuring Hall of Famers Frank "Home Run" Baker and Eddie Collins, as well as Harry Davis and Jack Barry. This is the core of the group that would come to be known as the $100,000 infield starting in 1911, when a younger Stuffy McIinnis replaced Harry Davis at first base. It's my belief that McInnis should have gotten more Hall of Fame consideration than he received. ![]() ![]() I got a great price on this, as the little "47" stamp on the middle panel's back lowered the overall score. The card itself is quite beautiful though.

Thank you, Marty.
I know that the grade is technically correct, but I feel that this is a fine example of how a mark can actually enhance a card's overall appeal. It adds character to it. It's a subtle reminder that this card is a part of history.

I'm sure you are right, it is graded authentic.

So I snagged two more for my set last night from eBay. I'm only 10 away from completing one of my goals this year. Very excited that I'm almost at the half way point. I really have to start picking away at some of the bigger names though.
