AL MAYS, Columbus Solons (American Association) ~ N172 OLD JUDGE 1886-90 REPRINT

Description: Periodically we experience problems with our scanner. Today is one of those days. Depending upon which view you choose, the first scan will show horizontal lines and/or cross hatching marks. Rest assured, these are not on the card itself. Usually scanning problems are confined to color pictures but today it's "advanced" to black and white! (You will note that the second scan (reverse side of the card) exhibits none of these problems.) For the Baseball Hobbyist. . . 1886-1890 Old Judge REPRINT baseball card AL MAYS ~ 1889-1890 Columbus Solons (American Association, a major league) 1-3/8" by 2-1/2" Quality REPRINT of N172 card Goodwin & Company produced the largest baseball card set of the 19th century which featured more than 500 different subjects among 3,000+ cards with some men featured on a dozen or more variations. Those three thousand PLUS cards have been cataloged by collectors by the American Card Catalog number 172 or N172. This set is chronicled well in the 457 page hardback book, GOODWIN & COMPANY OLD JUDGE 1886-1890 Baseball Cards which we recommend and sell. The card offered here is a modern REPRINT in approximately the same size as the original. (Originals are 1-7/16" by 2-1/2" while this REPRINT is 1/16" narrower at 1-3/8".) It will fit in collector pages designed for T205, T206 and other early candy and tobacco cards. Condition: Hand cut, Excellent/Near-Mint or better - this is the actual card the buyer will receive since we have just one card to sell. ANY number of single cards (up to and including 8" X 10" in size) will ship for the one single card USPS Ground Advantage cost IF the buyer will request and wait for a combined invoice before paying. Also available is eBay standard envelope service for qualifying orders. Questions? Email us. POSTSCRIPT: Our last scan has nothing to do with this listing. It is a picture of all-time baseball great Ted Williams with The Baseball Hobbyist's Steve Mitchell at a 1983 Connecticut sports collectors gathering - Ted's very first-ever collector event. On the second day of the show "The Splendid Splinter" visited with collectors and dealers and graciously posed for this photo. (Photo was taken by fellow collector-dealer Bob Thing, longtime Maine hobbyist). _______________________ Important: Shipping Information A goal has always been to keep shipping costs low.
