Jake Beckley Old Judge Cabinet

[tiger8mush]

The one I have is the third pose, “Catch, hands held out neck high.”

Please excuse my ignorance, as I know very little about this set but enjoy learning about it. But how could someone have documented the pose (by naming it the third pose) if it is a new discovery? Wouldn't a new discovery be of a player/pose that doesn't previously exist? Or does every player have one each of these poses?

Awesome card! Congrats!

It was a known pose in the N172 set, but was not known to exist in the larger N173 cabinets.

Russ- considering what a Ryan rookie was worth in the early 80's and how the card has really tailed off lately, you got better than a great deal, you got a helluva deal. Congrats!

The Mets traded Nolan Ryan for Jim Fregosi in one of the worst deals ever.

And Russ traded Nolan Ryan for an N173 Jake Beckley- one of the best deals ever!

Nice pickup and a dandy swap. Hopefully, one of Beckley's relatives doesn't get a hold of this thread on your birthday. That is a wicked combination.

Lovely Day...
