Seeking 1871-1872 Mort Rogers scorecard images of Boston players

[barrysloate]

Yes, a near set of 10 was found but included only the scorecard fronts. The players were: both Wrights, Spalding, Barnes, McVey, Shaefer, Jackson, Birdsdall, Cone, and Gould.

The article states that the lot appeared in Leland's auction of August 4th 1992. Anybody have this catalog?

Paul,

I'm betting I have it and can check later this morning. PM or e-mail me if you need a scan or info.

Another pic.
Guess they weren't to careful when pasting the photos on the 'Birdsall number 9 scorecards'...

Jimmy- I used to own that Birdsall. I remember it because of the misaligned name.

Barry, wonder if this was an earlier scorecard since it carried a 5 cents price tag instead of 10 cents.
The 'No.' caption above left wasn't printed like the others.

Jimmy- I've surmised that the 1871 sold for 5 cents, and because of its popularity, the price was raised to 10 cents in 1872. But it's just an educated guess.
