Jay, that card is crazy neat to know there's new stuff still to be found.

Oh, John...I'm still waiting for that Buffalo card to show up!

Hi Jay,
Yes, I'm still looking for a Wise-Washington OJ, as well as Morrill-Washington. As you know, both of these players are relatively easy to find with Boston, but quite tough to find with Washington. I'm not picky about condition (hint, hint!).
Best,
Val

So much eye candy, I love it!! Nice Ewing Jay. I was surprised to see an 1887 version of Ewing surface when none had been documented for so long. We knew he was photographed in 1887, but no N172 to show for it.

I will post some of my favorite Detroit cards when I have time to do them justice (new scanner). In the meantime, I will post a recent N172 pick-up of mine that was previously only known as an N173 (locked up in the Wharton-Tigar collection at the British Museum). It is an ugly card but the only known copy of this pose as an N172 (although I'm sure there are others). Beatin played on the 1887 Detroit Wolverine team so I collect him even though he was not issued a card with Detroit. My expectation of actually checking this pose off my want list was nil to none.

Nice pickup Joe, that card is on my list also.

Jay- when I first showed you that inventory list (with photos) back in 2001, were you aware of the significance of that card, or was it something you learned about later on?

Incredible cards, thank you to the OP.... the close ups on some of the images in this thread are beyond stunning.

I recently started collecting NYs & Brooklyns.... this is a good opportunity to share the additions (as a grouping) with those who have been nice enough to chat with me about OJ & 19th century cards, and also those who helped add to the collection.

The cards in this thread would make one hell of a starter set.
