Ted Breitenstein is incorrectly pictured. The actual card has him throwing in the other direction. |

For years, it has seemed to me, that to discern who was in the white border tobacco set, and why, it was necessary to see what was happening in baseball in 1905, 1906, 1907, 1908, and 1909. |

Ted, I guess everyone's personal experience differs, but to me personally, I have got to rank shaughnessy up there as a close 2nd or 3rd to Foster. I have owned all the others, most of them like Lafitte, Ellam, Fritz and Reagan multiple times, all tough, but still to this day and it blows my mind..of all the SL'S the one I have never owned is Shaughnessy. Again...could just be my experience but always felt his cards when I was going after them sold for a premium leading me to think he was as tough as or close to Foster |

Years ago Beckett had Shaughnessy and Perdue at slight premiums over the other southern leaguers. So I got a Shaughnessy early on. And without any trouble I picked up a second one... I thought they were easy to get. I sold on several years ago. Sold the other a few months ago. And bought one a few weeks ago. I don't think Shaugnessy ranks up there as one of the more difficult SLers. But I understand that some folks think as George does, above. |

Thanks for sharing. Probably just my experience and could be as easy to find as the others. Just felt whenever I won items from auctions houses of southern league lots or searched for sl's on ebay, shaughnessy was never around. |

Ted - Breit's No Hitter in 1st Major League start, right ?!?... But from a Minor League perspective I think he might be most famous for having his best year pitching in 1908 for NO only to lose the last game of the season to the Nashville Vols 0-1 and his team lose the Southern Association Crown by winning percentage of .571 to .573 -- |

You almost got me Brian ! You know, I was going to answer that way, but Ted mentioned "in the record books," so I deferred to the more commonly known No-Hitter in 1st major league start, since Ted and Breit probably did not make the record books! See Smiley man, below... |
