The set has always intrigued me and I've dabble a little in acquiring a few over the past couple years. I have not seen any threads lately (I apologize if there is and I missed it) regarding the number of subjects in the set, if any new discoveries have been made over the past 6 years or so.

According to an archived thread (http://www.network54.com/Forum/153652/thread/1119720882/) there were 520 known subjects as of June-July 2005. As of the publication of "The Photographic Baseball Cards of Goodwin & Company 1886-1890, Old Judge's baseball cards" in 2008, there were 521 known subjects in the set.

while several new poses have been discovered in the interim, do we still sit at 521 for the number of known subjects?

I'm not sure if I'd lose my Old Judge Secret Society card if I divulged all the specifics, but there is another subject that was "found" since the book came out. You didn't hear it from me though. End communication.

They are watching, they are always watching...

I'm very aware of how secretive some or most are, in regards to divulging information about finds, discoveries, and additions of this nature. SO I appreciate the crumb of information.
