Opinion on 19th cent girlie card on ebay

[pete zouras]

Sorry in advance for outing this card, but it's in piss-poor condition and my guess is that not many people are in the market for it. My concern is that the card has been reattached (re-glued?) after having been broken apart along the side-to-side heavy crease. While you're at it, if anyone can tell me if the card is catalogued and is definitively baseball-related I would appreciate it (the "ideal" looks like a sticker). Thanks, Pete

Burdick classified these as the S.W.Venable issues and gave them numbers 358,359,360 and 361. I generally have given them the (N)360 designation as those were the baseball scenes under that category. I have seen them called other numbers too though...In nice shape they are fairly valuable. I have sold some nice ones in the $250-$400 range. I hope this helps...
